Description

Gustav Klimt painted what would become one of the final great portraits of the Viennese golden age. His subject was Elisabeth Bachofen-Echt, the daughter of his most celebrated patron — Adele Bloch-Bauer, the Woman in Gold — and the portrait carries the full weight of that extraordinary lineage.

Elisabeth is depicted in Klimt’s mature decorative style: her figure emerging from a shimmering field of ornamental pattern, her gown dissolving into the jewelled surface that surrounds her. Behind her, in a device that Klimt had been developing since his early Symbolist period, a background of dense, exotic imagery 

Before vs After — Gustav Klimt Baroness Bachofen-Echt Tapestry

The painting was completed just as the world Elisabeth inhabited was beginning to dissolve. The Austro-Hungarian Empire, the great Jewish Viennese families who had been Klimt’s most devoted patrons, the golden world of the Ringstraße — all of it would be swept away by the catastrophes of the 20th century. The portrait survives as one of the supreme achievements of a civilisation that knew, perhaps, that its time was passing.
