About Klimt Statue - Large - Adele (1907)

This Adele statue is part of our Gustav Klimt Collection. For over 50 years, Parastone has successfully designed high-quality reproductions of timeless masterpieces. The collection “Mouseion” is devoted to making exact three-dimensional representations of masterpieces of many artists. This beautiful hand-painted resin statue is a reproduction of the Austrian Symbolist’s masterpiece “Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I” (1903-7) also known as “The woman in Gold” (1903-7).

Klimt’s work “Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I” was commissioned by Adele’s husband, Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer a banker and sugar producer, and it is representative of Gustav Klimt lavish gilding and organic art nouveau patterning. Following the Anschluss of Austria by Nazi Germany, Ferdinand Bloch-Baer fled Austria leaving behind much of his belongings and art collection, including “The Woman in gold”. The painting was stolen by the Nazis and displayed at the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere. In 2006 the Bloch-Bauer family were able to recover the painting and sold it Ronald Lauder, co-founder of the Neue Galerie in New York, where it currently resides.

    Klimt

    Gustav Klimt was a controversial Austrian symbolist painter during his time. Klimt’s main subject in his work was the female body and the beauty of femininity. Art community heavily criticized his art for being too sensual and erotic. Today, they’ve proven to be some of the most memorable paintings ever to emerge from the Vienna Secession movement. He furthered and advocated for the Art Nouveau movement (also known as Jugendstil in Germany). Eventually, he remains one of the most talented decorative painters of the 20th century. Klimt’s “Golden Phase” is quite possibly his most widely recognized period of art. This period emerged following positive reactions to his work and some financial success. The Golden Phase period included a large variety of paintings created with gold leaf in their production. Many of his works during this time, were very popular due to, in part, this utilization of gold with paint. While Klimt never saw much merit or fame from his work during his life, he has reached immortality in death and has greatly influenced the art community after his passing. Musart is proud to showcase the work of such a genius pioneer, who was incredibly important to the ongoing conversation of the art community as a whole.
