Interior decoration was of paramount importance to the Austrian painter Gustav Klimt (1862-1918), and many of his paintings were created for specific places or spaces.

This book is devoted to this aspect of Klimt's practice. It illustrates how some of the artist's most beloved paintings appeared in situ, in private dining rooms and drawing rooms, galleries, museums and public exhibition spaces. Colour reproductions of Klimt's paintings are juxtaposed with black-and-white period photographs of the original interiors with the colour paintings.

The text provides contextual information about how these paintings were conceived as part of interior design, as well as the collectors who first owned them.
