Portrait of a Lady, also known as Frau Heymann, is believed to have been painted by Gustav Klimt around 1894. The painting measures 60 by 55 centimetres and features a seated woman in profile view with a striking green dress and matching hat. Klimt was renowned for his depictions of the female body, and this painting is no exception.The style used in Portrait of a Lady is less ornate than other works by Klimt, who had abandoned shiny gilded decorations in favor of a more subdued approach. Although it was not as well-known as his later works, Portrait of Adele Block-Bauer I which sold for US $135 million in 2006, it still captures Klimt’s signature blend of abstraction and realism.
