Gustav Klimt

Gustav Klimt is my all-time favourite artist ever in the world! My bestest best favourite!:D
He is really excellent and i am a huge fan!
I have seen some of the most favourite artworks in the world and in my eyes none can compare to his work!
That really is a compliment as i have seen The Mona Lisa, The Venus De Milo, the whole set of the garden party paintings by Monet and the set of bridges, A heap of Renoir's and a gazillion Van Gough's.
My favourite is The Kiss ( the two people kissing :))
If ever you are in Vienna go the the Bellevedere Palace and in Paris go to the Musee D'Orsay and see the Klimts. Bellevedere has the Kiss.(The palace is worth seeing in itself).Actually second thoughts the Musee D'orsay is worth checking out on its own too :D.
he was one of the most prominent members of the Vienna Art Nouveau movement.
A legend!

Bella, I'm no art expert but i know what i like!

Hey Bee,

I've been to the Louvre too but sadly we didn't get to the Musee D'Orsay.

Still it was incredible to see some of the most famous works of art in person! (Shame the Mona Lisa was under glass, protected from humidity and camera flashes).

I'm a huge fan of Impressionist paintings, especially Monet's work.

And Paris, OMG! When I was there I was actually jumping up and down in the street, I was SO excited!! So far it's the most amazing city I've ever been to. I love, LOVE Paris!!!! I so wanna go back.

But after I go to Australia first. :)
