Klimt: The Bigger Picture examines Gustav Klimt's masterworks in their full context, exploring the Viennese artist's golden paintings, landscapes, and portraits. Through large-scale reproductions and scholarly essays, the book reveals details often missed in standard reproductions and examines Klimt's role in Vienna's cultural flowering. The volume becomes both art historical study and visual feast, proving that Klimt's decorative surfaces contain psychological depth and that seeing his work large-scale changes everything.

WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Klimt's paintings demand to be seen in detail, and this book delivers the scale his work deserves. The volume reminds us that his golden period was revolutionary, that his portraits captured Viennese society at its peak, and that decoration and depth aren't opposites.
