190115840AB1901. Vienna Herzig 1901. 45 : 34 cm. Original photoengraving in an gilt frame designed by Josef Hoffmann especially for Gustav Klimt. Contemporary beautiful photoengraving of Klimt's famous Judith. Published in the book 'Ars Nova' in 1901 shortly after Klimt finished the painting. In perfect condition and in a special frame designed by Josef Hoffmann especially for Gustav Klimt. Judith and the Head of Holofernes also known as Judith I German: Judith und Holofernesis an oil painting by Gustav Klimt painted in 1901. It depicts the biblical figure Judith holding the head of Holofernes after beheading him. The beheading and its aftermath have been commonly portrayed in art since the Renaissance. Judith was the biblical heroine who seduced and then decapitated General Holofernes in order to save her home city of Bethulia from destruction by the Assyrian army. When Klimt addressed the biblical theme of Judith the historical course of art had already codified its main interpretation and preferred representation. Many paintings exist describing the episode in a heroic manner especially expressing Judith's courage and virtuous nature. Judith appears as God's instrument of salvation but the violence of her action cannot be denied and is dramatically shown in Caravaggio's rendering as well as those of Gentileschi and Bigot. Other representations have depicted the subsequent moment when a dazed Judith holds Holofernes' severed head as Moreau and Allori anticipate in their suggestive mythological paintings. Klimt deliberately ignores any narrative reference whatsoever and concentrates his pictorial rendering solely on to Judith so much so that he cuts off Holofernes' head at the right margin. And there is no trace of a bloodied sword as if the heroine would have used a different weapon: an omission that legitimates association with Salome. The moment preceding the killing the seduction of Nebuchadnezzar's general seems to coalesce with the conclusive part of the story. unknown

1931142901Vienna: Österreichische Staatsdruckerei 1931. Edition of 500. One of 30 prints from the Eine Nachlese portfolio. Max Eisler 1881-1937 the publisher of this print was an art historian at Vienna University who published the first Klimt monograph in 1914. He intended Eine Nachlese to complement Das Werk the only folio set produced in Klimt's lifetime which was overseen by Klimt up to 1913. Fragile hand-printed collotype plates cannot be reused so the run must be completed on the first go and in only a limited number. The complicated lengthy process involves gelatin colloids mixed with dichromates. Thin 16-colour separation glass filters achieve the light-sensitive internegative images which capture the original tonal gradations. These are exposed to actinic light. Finally the delicate chine colle paper allows for greater colour saturation. Dark blue grey monochrome collotype on chine colle paper laid down on heavy cream wove paper with untrimmed deckled edges. Image size: 30.9 x 31.1 cm. Sheet size: 48 x 45.5 cm. Excellent condition. unknown

ill., br. «Durante il 1907,» scrive Jean Clair «a Vienna Gustav Klimt finiva il più bello dei suoi ritratti a fondo oro, senza dubbio uno dei più splendidi quadri che l'arte occidentale abbia prodotto. È il Ritratto di Adele Bloch-Bauer. Lo stesso anno, all'altra estremità dell'Europa, in quel cuore del continente che era Parigi, un altro pittore, Picasso, decideva di lasciare definitivamente incompiuta la grande tela che lo aveva occupato per lunghi mesi, e che sarebbe stata più tardi conosciuta come Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. A Vienna, lusso calma e voluttà; a Parigi, orrore, bruttezza, disarmonia. L'intelligenza prova una certa difficoltà a cogliere la contemporaneità di fenomeni che sembrano avere avuto luogo su pianeti diversi, non appartenere alla stessa storia. Cosa può significare la nascita, avvenuta lo stesso anno, di queste due opere così antitetiche, ma considerate oggi, grazie al distacco del tempo, di uguale importanza e ugualmente ammirate?». Domanda, per molti aspetti cruciale nella storia della pittura del Novecento, cui Jean Clair dà, in Il nudo e la norma, suggestive e affascinanti risposte.

br. Un racconto corale attorno a un grande protagonista del Novecento. Un esempio riuscito di intelligente commistione tra le arti: gli autori di questa antologia, rapiti dal genio di Klimt, indagano attraverso le loro storie gli stessi temi che il pittore, Schiele, Schönberg e Freud studiavano nel pieno del Modernismo viennese.

1931187360Vienna: Osterreichischen Staatsdruckerei 1931. One of 30 prints from the Eine Nachlese/Dernière gerbe/An Aftermath portfolio. This is the first reproduction of Klimt's original painting Max Eisler 1881-1937 the publisher of this print was an art historian at Vienna University who published the first Klimt monograph in 1914. He intended Eine Nachlese to complement Das Werk the only folio set produced in Klimt's lifetime which was overseen by Klimt up to 1913. The collotype produces fine tonal gradations sharp detail and a continuous-tone effect unmatched by most other photomechanical processes. However the surface of the gelatin-coated plate is extremely delicate and can break down under friction or over-inking. Plates wear out quickly giving a short print-run and maintaining consistent humidity during printing is crucial - even small fluctuations can ruin the plate. As a result collotype printing is slow exacting and vulnerable to failure but when successful it yields some of the finest printed images ever produced. Edition of 500. Collotype in colours on chine colle paper laid down on heavy cream wove paper with untrimmed deckled edges. Image size: 30.8 x 31 cm. Sheet size: 48 x 45.5 cm. Framed size: 59 x 56.3 cm. Presented in a handmade gold leaf frame with conservation acrylic glazing. Excellent condition. unknown

198016113171New York: Harry N. Abrams Inc 1980. Hardcover. Fine. Klimt Gustav. Elephant folio size 92 pp. illustrated in clamshell box with original shipping carton. A selection of erotic drawings by Gustav Klimt 1862-1918 published from a private collection focused on the nude female form most in frankly erotic poses. Klimt began his career in a conventional style but as he developed his work became intensely personal focusing on the beauty and eroticism of the female form. When he completed the ceiling of the Great Hall of the University of Vienna in 1900 the paintings were criticised as being pornographic which led him to no longer accept public commissions; sadly these paintings were destroyed in 1945 by SS troops when the Nazis were in retreat from the city. While his style is certainly frankly erotic his talent has been confirmed by the prices recently brought by his paintings which are some of the highest recorded for individual works of art.<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Cream cloth with author stamped in blind inlaid paper label to upper board with one of Klimt's illustrations gilt lettering on the spine cream-coloured endpapers frontispiece one of thirty-five full-page facsimiles volume opens with a lengthy essay "Klimt: Drawing Against Morality" followed by the thirty-five plates each printed on one side only and numbered followed by the plate descriptions; elephant folio size 16.5" by 12.25" pagination: 1-4 5-87 1 colophon first English language edition. Housed within a tray in the original large 21" by 17" clamshell box with title stamped similarly in blind and gilt facsimile of Klimt's signature to upper board this encased in the original shipping carton with the Abrams logo stamped in green all over.<br/><br/>___CONDITION: A fine copy the covers clean the corners straight and unrubbed the binding tight with solid hinges the interior clean and bright and free of prior owner markings; clean crisp as new.
