  • It is as though we are standing beneath the apple tree ourselves, with the dense treetops towering over the view of the old farmhouse in the background. Gustav Klimt painted this picture during his summer retreat at the Attersee in 1911. Using a pointillist technique, he dissolved nature into numerous brushstrokes, while the house itself is rendered with clearly defined surfaces and contours. This gives the impression of a two-dimensional surface pattern, despite the spatial distance between the individual motifs. The blossoming and fertility of nature that so delighted Klimt, evident in the orchards and flower meadows of most of his landscapes, takes on the character of a natural symbolism that celebrates life in its prime.
