Description
Water Serpents II, John Gustav Klimt, 80x145cm
This exquisite painting by Klimt shows a group of water nymphs, portrayed in lust and splendor.
It was sold for $183 million at auction in 2013, and today it is considered the sixth most expensive painting in history.
Many people say that the real purpose of this work was to secretly portray a lesbian orgy. And since same-sex relationships were not accepted in his time, Klimt decided to disguise the women as mythical figures.
The audacity of the main character's reddish pubic hair is notorious, while the nymph sensually looks at the viewer as if inviting him to meet her.
This Klimt masterpiece is one of Kuadros team's favorite famous paintings.
She can adorn the wall of your home or office and become a topic of conversation with your friends and family for years to come.
