«Gustav Klimt» is Nina Kransel's illustrated monograph on the Viennese artist, published by Prestel in paperback (127 pages, in English).
The book traces the life and career of Gustav Klimt and his role in early 20th-century Vienna, a city in cultural ferment. It analyses the sensuality and golden ornamentation of his paintings, the scandal they provoked among his contemporaries, and his innovative portrait techniques, as well as the relevance of his work in contemporary art.
The title is part of Prestel's Living Art series, published in 2007, within its catalogue of artist monographs.
Recommended for readers interested in art history, the Vienna Secession, and the figure of Gustav Klimt.
