Asked by Wiki User

Gustav Klimt was a painter of primarily oil on canvas, sometimes using gold leafing (during his "Golden" phase) or gliding. He used many yellows, golds, browns, and greens in his works; spirals, swirls, and phallic designs were used frequently throughout. Klimt often painted with themes of the female body, and was influenced by an eccentric range of artists, movements, and cultures to attain his distinctive style.

Info on Gustav Klimt's tree of Life?

There were only 4 people in the Garden of Eden. The figures to the right are Adam and Eve, it is after they ate the fruit from the tree if knowledge of good and evil because they are clothed.

The bird is often referred to as a raven, but that is false because the bird is not solid black. So it could be Satan or just a bird. The tree's fruit has eyes on it , all seeing. The female figure to the right has the same eyes on her dress. I think she is God. . Since Klimt revered women, perhaps he was being controversial by making God appear female.
