We will trace Klimt's creative transformations from his early Portrait of the Unknown Lady to his unfinished Bride, which was left in the studio when the artist was rushed by ambulance to hospital. Klimt was long known as 'the portraitist of beautiful ladies', and we will see why today's scholarship believes Klimt felt the desires of his models better than his contemporary Sigmund Freud understood the problems of his patients.
