Lady in White (c. 1917-18)
This panel captures the airy elegance of Klimt’s late portraits, where the figure feels luminous and almost weightless against a soft, atmospheric ground. In smalti, the whites are not a single white but a chorus of pale tones that create gentle movement through the gown, like fabric caught in a slow current. The subtle golds and creams in the background bring warmth and radiance, giving the portrait a serene, floating quality that feels both modern and timeless.
