Klimt — Portrait of a Woman, c. 1900 Art Postcard

An early-century portrait by Klimt — the sitter resting her chin on her hands, dressed in pale ruffled blue, set against a darkened atmospheric ground. The work belongs to the period around 1900–02, when Klimt was still moving toward the ornamented mature style. The identity of the model has not been firmly established, which is part of its quiet appeal. A 10×15 cm postcard, 350 g/m², for collectors of early Klimt and for postcrossers who like a subtler portrait.
