Virgin by Klimt European Tapestry
Virgin by Klimt is a Belgian jacquard woven wall tapestry. The artwork comes from a painting by Gustav Klimt completed circa 1913. In this surreal composition the entanglement of women has lost any realism, and thus all is absorbed in the decorative scheme. The association of beauty with such unnatural poses, indicates an allusion to lifes ephemeral nature, a reflection of modern society.
