Danae, Klimt

The painting Danae by Gustav Klimt is one of the most representative works in the artist's collection of female nudes. In it, he demonstrates the mastery of his stroke in outlining the female form. Although Klimt's style is unique and breaks with some classical rules of artistic composition, in this painting he shows that he has mastered the rules before breaking them, which, in the eyes of specialists, gives him the authority of a master.
