Description
The Kiss by Gustav Klimt is the archetype of tenderness and passion. This shimmering, colorful, love scene of two faces and bodies embracing each other, is conserved at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna.
The painting "The Kiss" from 1908/09 is undoubtedly Klimt's best-known work today.
A pair of lovers, kneeling on a flower meadow and wearing lavish golden robes, seem to be floating before an infinite cosmos of golden fog. This mystical backdrop further enhances the transcendental effect of the painting.
The lovers' bodies are joined together in a single contour. Only the faces and hands of the two figures are visible in vivid detail, as well as the shoulders and feet of the woman. The rest of her body is covered by flat decorative elements.
The ornamental shapes on the woman's dress—round, colorful patterns and floral elements—express softness and tenderness. Different-colored flowers adorn her hair and face and emphasize her feminine and loving nature.
The man is covered by rectangular, contrasting black-and-white structures which convey a masculine angularity and strength. The ornamental shapes in Klimt's painting therefore also symbolize the principles of the sexes.
Klimt creates the image of a perfect union between man and woman with both merging together. Here, man and woman connect with the earth and the cosmos, guided by the power holding everything together: love.
