Secessionist panel "The source" Georg Klimt ca 1900 Patinated Copper Art Nouveau

About the Item

In the art world, the name “Klimt” is inextricably linked with the period around 1900, Viennese Jugendstil and the Vienna Secession. Today, Gustav Klimt is considered one of the most important artists in the world, but his youngest brother, the craftsman Georg Klimt, was also a master of his trade. Although a closer look at Georg Klimt's oeuvre reveals clear elements of the Vienna Secession and Glasgow School, his works are characterized by a fascinating independence and diversity that still inspires us today. Georg Klimt's work is a wonderful example of how members of the art world around 1900 interacted and inspired each other. During his curatorial and artisanal work for the Vienna Secession, of which, bizarrely, he was never a member, he came into contact with Charles R. Ashbee, Archibald Knox, the MacNair sisters, Margerete MacDonald Mackintosh, Franz von Stuck and others. While his works also include everyday objects such as book covers, furniture applications and clock hands, his true genius is revealed in his hand-chased metal reliefs, which he created either as independent works of art or as decorations for pieces of furniture and wall paneling. Although many of these objects no longer exist in their original form, the reliefs taken from them have been preserved. Framed as individual works, they can unfold their impressive effect even more. Klimt's feeling for curves and proportions, his allegorical, mostly mythical depictions and his masterly skill in metalworking lend his works a unique charm. The exhibitions at the Vienna Secession were also visited by important international women artists and hung with their works of art. Georg Klimt drew inspiration for our relief from works by the Scottish artist Margarete MacDonald Mackintosh, which were exhibited several times at the Vienna Secession.
