/internal/media/dispatcher/118786/fullForester's House in Weissenbach on the Attersee I1914[Gustav Klimt]Gustav KlimtOil on canvasKlimt spent the summer of 1914 at this forester’s lodge situated at the southern end of the lake Attersee in Upper Austria. He captured his holiday home in two paintings. In this work, the tapestry of painted dabs dissolves the different objects into something immaterial. Two dark bushes frame the composition at the edges. The flowers, in all their vibrant splendor, convey Klimt’s passion for all that bloomed. In the last years of his life, he became particularly receptive to nature’s sensory appeal. He painted landscapes without people in which time seems to stand still. They are images of an earthly paradise in an eternal summer. The forester’s lodge still exists today. Paintinghttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/83843/rdf
