Note du spécialiste

Dr. Marian Bisanz-Prakken will include this work in her forthcoming supplement volume of the drawings of Gustav Klimt.


The current drawing was likely prepared as a study for the figure of Pallas Athene in the Allegory of "Griechische Antike," decoration for the grand staircase of the Kunsthistoriches Museum in Vienna.
