1 Painting Reproduction - Mother and Child 'The Three Ages of Woman' by Gustav Klimt (Part) This was painted in 1905, the current location is in the National Gallery of Modern Art in Rome, Italy. Gustav Klimt was an Austrian, with an art nouveau, who died at the age of 55 in Many of Klimt's paintings focus on the female body. His artworks were portrayed as very scandal for his time, because of the nudity, sexuality and eroticism he expressed using the artistic view of the human body. In The Three Ages of Woman it is obvious that childhood, middle age and the elderly stage is represented here. In 1902 he was coping with the death of his baby son, so he released a series of paintings focused on death and life... Klimt' message to be reminded: 'in life we are in death' Composition: 64 % cotton 19 % acrylic 9 % wool 8 % polyester CoKLMC03 Mother and Child Klimt Cushion 46 x 46 cm Flanders Tapestries: New items 2012 Pagina 1

3 Painting Reproduction - Bal au Moulin de la Galette Bal au moulin de la Galette is an impressionistic painting painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1876). There are two versions of the painting: a large one of 2 meter width (= Paris, Musée d'orsay) and a smaller on is hanging in an unknown location. Which one is the oldest, is also unknown... The painting shows a 'bal' at Montmartre in the 'Moulin de la Galatte', a part of Paris. It took place on a hill (at that time one of the highest top of Paris). The people on the painting look happy, de women are all very known in the village and the men are mainly friends of Renoir. The way the people express their happy feelings, gave some controversions. Montmartre was a poor neighbourhood with a lot of prostitution, which you can not tell from looking at this painting. But others, like Vincent van Gogh, painted the same idea but in his real form, as a reaction on Renoirs painting.

5 Painting Reproductions - Irises in Garden Irises is a painting by the Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh, Irises was painted while Vincent van Gogh was living at the asylum at Saint Paul-de-Mausole in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France, in the last year before his death in It was painted before his first attack at the asylum. There is a lack of the high tension which is seen in his later works. He called the painting "the lightning conductor for my illness", because he felt that he could keep himself from going insane by continuing to paint. The painting was influenced by Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints, like many of his works and those by other artists of the time. The similarities occur with strong outlines, unusual angles, including close-up views and also flattish local colour.he considered this painting a study, which is probably why there are no known drawings for it, although Theo, Van Gogh's brother, thought better of it and quickly submitted it to the annual exhibition of the Société des Artistes Indépendants in September 1889, together with Starry Night Over the Rhone. He wrote to Vincent of the exhibition: "It strikes the eye from afar. The Irises are a beautiful study full of air and life."

7 Painting Reproductions - Lady of Shalott: Tennyson's poem 'The Lady of Shalott' published in 1883 tells of a woman suffering under an undisclosured curse, and living isolated in a tower near King Arthur's castle. She is allowed to see the outside world only through its reflection in a mirror. One day she glimpses the handsome knight Lancelot reflected and cannot resist looking at him directly. The punishment that follows results in her drifting in her boat downstream to Camelot 'singing her last song,' but dying before reaching there. Waterhouse shows her letting go the boat's chains, while staring at the crucifix, placed in front of the three glittering candles. This imaginary figure is set in a highly naturalistic landscape.

10 Painting Reproductions - Basquet on table Still life with fruit basket 'The Kitchen Table', by Paul Cézanne - Paris, Musée d'orsay Cézanne is arguably the greatest master of still life paintings of any era, and this shining painting constitutes one of his most ambitious compositions. Where is this basket? Placed in a very unstable position in the upper right corner of the table, or - thanks to a complex perspective - is on the ground along with the wood piece partially at the right of the painting? Here Cézanne has created a double perspective to paint a sensational work in which the cubism begins to appear...
