Hope II

Artist: Gustav Klimt

Gustav Klimt's Hope II of 1908 shows a pregnant woman in profile, head bowed and hands clasped, her patterned robe filling the canvas. A small skull appears near her belly, and kneeling figures are set below her. The supplied record confirms the title, artist, date, medium and object type but gives no dimensions, collection or provenance, so this visit stays close to what the picture shows.

Farm Garden with Sunflowers

Artist: Gustav Klimt

Gustav Klimt's 'Farm Garden with Sunflowers' of 1907 is a square canvas packed with blossoms, painted near Lake Attersee. The record confirms the title, artist, date, medium, dimensions and Belvedere collection, and names a brewery garden at Litzlberg am Attersee as the subject. It does not supply a detailed visual description, so this tour stays close to what the sources establish and what the square canvas itself shows.
