Description
A reproduction print of the 1907 Klimt oil painting ‘Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I', originally commissioned by the sitter's husband, Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer. The portrait is the final and most fully representative work of what scholars have coined as Klimt's ‘golden period' in which a number of his artworks were inspired by Byzantine imagery and mosaics. This archival giclee print has a cotton core mount in a handmade and hand-finished sustainably sourced solid ash wood frame. Made in the UK by museum specialists and printed on heavyweight, matt-smooth fine art paper, it's ready to hang on your wall. As the leading Viennese painter of the early 20th century, Gustav Klimt (1862 -1918) influenced, amongst others, Egon Schiele. Klimt is most known for his sensuous, highly decorative portraits but he also created richly verdant landscapes. The luxuriant works adorned with gold leaf produced in the 'golden period' of his career include his famous 1908 painting 'The Kiss'. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
This Gustav Klimt print is a bold statement piece that works beautifully in contemporary or eclectic interiors. Its striking gold tones and intricate detailing make it a perfect focal point above a sofa or mantel, especially in living rooms or bedrooms with neutral or muted palettes to let the artwork truly stand out. When styling, consider pairing it with plush textiles or minimalist furniture to enhance its luxurious feel. Practical tips include hanging it at eye level and ensuring plenty of natural light to emphasise its shimmer. Its versatile size and classic frame make it an easy addition to both modern and traditional spaces, adding a touch of sophistication and a splash of colour without overwhelming the room.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
