Kirche in Cassone — Gustav Klimt (1913)
Stacked houses like tesserae, a pale church tower rising above lake-blue and garden-green. This fine-art reproduction—after Klimt’s Italian lakeside view at Cassone on Lake Garda—turns architecture and foliage into ornament: mosaic-like colour fields, rhythmic repetition, and a near-square composition that glows with Golden Period richness—sans figures, all pattern and place.
Why it captivates
-
Ornament as landscape — rooftops, walls, and trees interlock like a living tapestry.
-
Golden Period palette — warm ochres and saturated greens feel lush yet calm.
-
Near-square presence — balanced proportions that anchor a room.
-
Detail up close, harmony from afar — small marks cohere into luminous order.
-
Vienna Secession spirit — Art Nouveau pattern translated into village geometry.
What you’ll see
A hillside village stepping down toward Lake Garda: the church of Cassone and cypresses rise above clustered roofs; gardens and stone walls tessellate into patterned bands. Dappled, deliberate strokes build colour like mosaic, so the scene reads both decorative and real.
A richer historical frame
Painted in 1913 during Klimt’s travels in northern Italy, this work brings his decorative language—more often applied to figure painting—into landscape. Repetition becomes structure, colour fields become architecture, and the result is a serene, radiant synthesis of Vienna Secession design and Mediterranean light.
