Klimt — Portrait of Helene Klimt (1898) Art Postcard

Helene Klimt was the artist's niece; this small portrait was painted in 1898, when she was six years old. A quiet, almost private work — profile view, white blouse, dark bobbed hair in pastel and paint. It is the Klimt before the golden Secession myth: intimate, careful, domestic. For postcards sent to young friends, or for a collector who values the edges of a major artist's career. From our painting art postcard collection. 10×15 cm, 350 g/m².
