Gustav Klimt's The Kiss version by me.

I've had first encountered Gustav Klimt's work during college. I can't forget that moment because I was so struck by the style. And so Klimt and his contemporaries immediately became my favorite artists. The first time I saw his work up close was in 2008 during a temporary exhibit near the Lake Como in Italy, alongside Schiele and Kokoschka's works. Although "The Kiss" wasn't there back then, I finally managed to see it in Vienna in 2017 at Belvedere Palace. I was so in awe of the picture there, I even forgot to take a photo of myself with it. Art Nouveau became a passion for me since then and I adore everything with that style from buildings to statues... Seeing "The Kiss" was, in a way, crossing a very important item from my bucket list. I've managed to cross many other items in other museums over the years and I plan to share them in due time...
