Tree of Life (Gustav Klimt) Bowl
Description
The Tree of Life, Stoclet Frieze is a painting by the Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt. It was completed in 1909 and is based on the Art Nouveau style in a symbolic painting genre. The dimensions of the painting are 195 by 102 centimetres, and it is housed at the Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna.
So, the Tree of Life represents the continuity of life as well as its complexities. It unites all elements of life. Klimt further emphasises this connectedness by his use of a flattened style and design elements that envelope the entire surface. This is also true of the human figures beside each tree.
Gustav Klimt is considered the main figure of Austria's Art Nouveau. From 1897 to 1905 Gustav Klimt was president of the Secession Vienna, of which he was also co-founder. His pictures, painted with unobtrusive colours full of symbolic power, are a combination of two-dimensional, mosaic-like elements and Art Nouveau ornaments.
