Saturday Afternoon Tea :)

“Adele Bloch-Bauer I” by Gustv Klimt, 1907.
I saw this painting in The Star about a month ago, it was sold for USD 135 million. I couldn't forget her gaze. You will sink deep into her world if you stare long enough. Overwhelming grace and elegance in "Adele". Timeless piece.

"The Kiss” by Gustv Klimt, 1907.

Here is another masterpiece. I worried my description would merely describe 0.0001% of how magnificent of this painting. It contains all the elements in a lover's kiss. The passionate moment just froze in the painting, hence became eternity.

Usually i don't have a 'thing' for all these fine arts. But these artworks stunned me. Hope you guys find it as astonishing as I do.
