Gustav Klimt: 1862-1918

The biography delves into Klimt’s complex relationships and struggles. I wonder what motivated Néret to highlight these aspects so prominently.

His artwork is so rich with symbolism and feeling, but I wondered if the biography made you see his pieces in a new light or felt disconnected from his personal story.

There are so many of Klimt’s pieces—I'm curious what criteria or sources Néret used to select what made it into the biography.
