Konsttryck av Gustav Klimt

The Kiss is the obvious choice for good reason: the rich golds, deep greens, and intimate composition draw the eye without overwhelming a room. We'd recommend it as a framed print at 70x100cm, hung about 15cm above the back of a standard sofa. The warm tones pair beautifully with cream, olive, or navy interiors. If you want something less expected, Klimt's Tree of Life print has the same golden palette but a more horizontal flow that suits wider walls. Our frames are solid FSC-certified wood with UV-protective glazing, so those golds won't fade even in a sun-drenched living room.

This is the number one concern people have, and honestly, it's valid with cheaper prints. Our Klimt prints are museum-grade giclée on thick matte paper, which means you get real depth and tonal accuracy, even in those famously layered gold passages. Shoppers regularly tell us the prints look better in person than on screen, which we think comes down to the matte finish picking up natural light the way a painting does rather than bouncing glare back at you. If you've been burned by a flimsy poster or a badly fitted frame before, the difference here is night and day: the print arrives already fitted in a solid wood frame, ready to hang.

The Kiss became iconic because it captures something genuinely rare in art: tenderness without sentimentality, wrapped in an almost abstract explosion of gold leaf and pattern. It was controversial in 1908 for its raw intimacy, and that emotional charge is exactly why it still resonates. As for it feeling overdone, a well-framed, properly sized Klimt print on your wall is a completely different experience from seeing it on a tote bag. Hang a 50x70cm framed version in a bedroom or hallway with muted surroundings and it becomes the room's quiet centrepiece, not a cliché.

For a housewarming or birthday, we'd pick the Flower Garden print. It's vibrant, joyful, and works in almost any room without needing the recipient to be a Klimt superfan. Mother and Child is a beautiful, personal choice for a new parent. Both work brilliantly at 30x40cm or 50x70cm framed, so they're easy to place on any wall. Every print ships ready to hang with fixtures already attached, which means the person you're gifting it to can actually put it up that same day rather than hunting for frame fittings.

Klimt was a founding member of the Vienna Secession, which sat at the crossroads of Art Nouveau, Symbolism, and early Expressionism. His golden phase paintings like The Kiss and the Stoclet Frieze lean heavily into Art Nouveau's decorative richness, while his later landscapes and portraits move toward something more Expressionist and painterly. For your walls, this means Klimt art prints are unusually versatile: the golden works bring warmth and opulence to modern or mid-century spaces, while his landscapes (think Birch Forest or Italian Garden) feel surprisingly contemporary and pair well with Scandinavian or minimalist interiors.
