PORTRAIT OF ADELE MIDI (LINED)
Gustav Klimts Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I (1907), reproduced on this journal cover, is a stunning example of the Viennese Jugendstil style. With the subjects face emerging from the background like a lucid dream, the portrait is hauntingly beautiful. Seized by the Nazis in the 1940s, the painting was recovered and today is on display in New York.

The original was made of red morocco leather embossed and gilded with rosettes, spirals and dotted lines, but here we have used a beguiling black background to play up its mysterious origins. Original Art: Red Moroccan leather book binding.
