This detail from Gustav Klimt's "Beethoven Frieze" showcases his signature style, combining stylized figures with intricate gold patterns. The "Longing for Happiness" series depicts a group of figures, their bodies rendered in graceful lines and their flowing hair suggesting a sense of movement and emotion. This iconic work, created in 1902, exemplifies Klimt's contribution to the Art Nouveau movement and is housed in Vienna's Belvedere Museum, a prominent destination for Austrian art lovers.
