Amazing.
Klimt invented a new trend in European modern art instead of following the traditional and conventional trends.
The secret that is more extraordinary about Portrait of a Lady are two paintings, in two layers
Portrait of a Lady, was painted over another Klimt painting, A Portrait of a Young Lady, not seen since 1912. Klimt had painted over the portrait when a young girl from Vienna had died, probably it was a hard moment for Klimt, that is why he transformed that painting in new.
Klimt in the later phase, Klimt painted flowers like portraits and portraits of women like flowers. His color palettes are darker, a different atmosphere from his
Byzantine or Golden period,
