Description
As the most renowned founder of the Vienna Secession, Gustav Klimt is perhaps most often associated with his allegorical, overtly erotic works. However, the artist took delight in painting many landscapes – especially works depicting age-old architecture in Italy and Austria – and welcomed it as an experimental respite from tiresome commissions. Church in Cassone was painted by the artist in 1913 and shows various landmarks, including Castello Scaligero, the pieve of St. Stephen, and the church of Santa Maria di Navene. For Klimt, Cassone represented a far-off vista, as he reportedly painted the work using a telescope from Malcesine, Italy. This hand-painted Klimt reproduction would make a fine addition to the home of any art-lover, as it has been painstakingly recreated to celebrate even the minutest details. All Gustav Klimt reproduction oil paintings from overstockArt include free shipping, easy returns and a certificate of authenticity.
