Gustav Klimt Lady With Feather Hat
1910 Fine Art Painting
Also known as Black Feather Hat, the red hair and the disproportionate hat were already present in Klimt’s Lady with Hat and Feather Boa (1909). The unfinished style, unusual for the Austrian artist, seems to recall that of Toulouse-Lautrec, whose work was seen by Klimt in Paris the previous year: this is echoed by the synthesis of the image, lacking any decorative support, and its low tones.
