Klimt: Calm Pond on the Kammer Castle Grounds, 1899

This enchanting scene has gorgeous warm & cool contrasts and serves as a great entre to Klimt's style and techniques.

The original is square in aspect ratio. We will convert this to portrait orientation without sacrificing the depth of perspective.

Palette

Detail

There is not a lot of detail in the available source images, so this presents an opportunity to flesh out the detail with what we know about landscape painting techniques.

Style

We get the opportunity to create some of the Klimtian "sparkle", based on what we have learned from Monet’s Waterlily paintings.
