Gustav Klimt Fulfillment, c.1909

Klimt's work, "Fulfillment" is part of a larger work, "Tree of Life." Comprising of the right side of it, this piece depicts a couple, locked in a loving embrace. The female figure in her brightly-patterned dress is almost completely obsured by the tall male, dressed in a cloak of concentric circles that appear to be eyes staring back at us. The flowing branches of the tree can be seen in the background. The female's face is the brightest spot and focal-point, her expression, that of fulfillment.
