Woman with Hat and Feather Boa

Woman With Hat and Feather Boa
Gustav Klimt, 1907

Gustav Klimt is one of my favorite painters for years. I have a special love for the painting Woman with Hat and Feather Boa as it is quite atypical to his usual work (mostly with a small piece of naturalism surrounded by texture and ornament).

Here I like the contrast between light and darkness, the static (of the deco) and the movement of her hat and eyes.

I find the lady really peaceful yet classy. Just like my mood these days !
