The Woman in Gold
I visited the Neue Galerie, a museum of German and Austrian art in Fifth Avenue, New York. It holds painting from the famous Austrian painter, Gustav Klimt, among other Germans and Austrian painters and designers. However, the reason for my visit to the Neue Galerie, was to see the famous painting of Gustav Klimt, " The Woman in Gold", a portrait of Adele Bloch. Yet, I encourage you to see the painting after you watch the movie, which shares the same name. The movie tells the story of Adele Bloch's niece, Maria Altmann, a Jewish during the heights of the Nazi government in Austria and how the painting came to be at the Neue Galerie. I believe that after watching the movie, you will appreciate more the history and beauty of such exquisite painting. This is the type of painting that must be seen in person, in order to appreciate its details and beautiful color. It will be an experience, like no other.
