Summary
In Paris, 1900 the artist Gustav Klimt is feted at the Universal
Exhibition whilst he is condemned as a provocateur in his native
Vienna. Ahead of his time, his paintings reflect the way he lives
his life; his models are his muses, the women he
worships. In all of his work can be glimpsed the
artist’s passionate relationships and his endless search for
perfection...
