Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I, Klimt

According to experts, the Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer Iis the most representative painting of Gustav Klimt's entire career. Painted during the so-called "Golden Age," in which the artist developed all kinds of works using gold. This painting was made in 3 years (completed in 1907), which denotes the great dedication and value that Klimt attributed to it.

The movie "Woman in Gold" (2015), directed by Simon Curtis, addresses Maria Altmann's struggle to recover the Klimt painting "Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I," seized by the Nazis.

In 2006, for 4 months, it was the most expensive painting in the world, reaching $135 million. Paid for by the New York gallery Neue Galerie, where the painting remains to this day.
