Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer II – Gustav Klimt

Adele II by Klimt: a vividly coloured Viennese portrait

Gustav Klimt’s Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer II reveals another side of the Vienna-based artist. Painted in 1912, five years after the celebrated golden version, this work is indeed the second portrait of Adele. Klimt depicts her standing, still and facing forward, beneath a large black hat that frames her pale face. Her ivory and silvery dress continues in a deep blue line, while her direct gaze gives the figure quiet assurance. This explicit distinction makes it possible to choose Adele II for its colour without confusing it with the 1907 portrait.

Raspberry pink, emerald green and blue in this Klimt portrait

The pink background envelops the figure before meeting broad panels of emerald green and petrol blue. Pink, white, yellow and violet flowers punctuate the setting, joined by small scenes that emerge gradually. From afar, the face, hat and vertical form create a highly legible image. Closer up, the eye discovers the bouquets and the variations of blue that animate the dress and floor. This pink, green and blue palette offers Klimt’s decorative richness in a fresher, more floral register than his gold-dominated compositions.

A vertical Klimt portrait that brings height to a room

In an entrance, this slender figure naturally follows a narrow wall and gives the passage a rhythm. In a living room, the canvas print works with a cream wall, dark wood, blue velvet or a few brass touches. The pinks bring warmth, while greens and blues retain a composed elegance. The full-length portrait keeps a strong visual role without becoming theatrical: Adele looks into the room with reserve, surrounded by a garden of colour. Gustav Klimt’s Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer II will suit admirers who wish to move away from the first golden portrait while keeping an instantly recognisable work.
