The Kiss, Gustav Klimt, Man and Woman Hugging Sculpture

The dynamic bond between woman and man (c. 1907) is eloquently illustrated by the famous 20th-century artist, Gustav Klimt. His paintings are large allegorical canvases which combine linear construction and rich colors frequently illustrating a world of beautiful ladies and nudes against a bejeweled background.

The decorative cover appears to hide a pure, virtually esoteric, feeling of felicity, portrayed in a classical manner, snuggling in a bed of flowers. Two figures are located at the edge of a flowered escarpment. The man is wearing neutral colored rectangles and a crown of vines; the lady wears brightly colored tangent circles and flowers in her hair. The couple’s embrace is enveloped by triangular vining and a veil of concentric circles.

As per the Jugendstil practice, these lovers appear to be detached from the planet. An impression that’s fortified by the application of shades of gold and gold leaf.

Parastone, a renowned European collectible figurine manufacturer, has masterfully brought to life this mythical immortal painting of “The Kiss” by Art Nouveau master artist Gustav Klimt, as an intricate 3D statue modification in the finest detail, and can be seen under the Alternative Works section of this art web site which specializes in historical reproductions of famous works.

Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) was a prominent member of a trailblazing group of artists called “Sezession” and is widely considered to be one of the key pioneers of modern art. Aside from this, his ornamental Jugendstil style evokes an impossible to resist feeling which is inspired by the “fin-de-siecle” of 19th century Vienna: elitist, liberal-middle class, corrupt, and pleasantly-decorative. His work is extremely familiar because of his monumental style combined with Byzantine-like ornamental art and classical symbolism, created against the background of romanticism which was so characteristic of his time.

In Sezession’s own words: “Art guides us to the ultimate realm, the only place where we’re going to be capable of finding simple joy, pure contentment and pure love. A choir of angels from paradise. Joy given by divine glints. That kiss from the whole world!”
