Original Description
Gustav Klimt’s The Beethoven Frieze II (1902) is a mesmerizing symphony of gold, symbolism, and human longing. Created for the Vienna Secession’s 14th exhibition as a tribute to Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, this 34-meter-long mural embodies Klimt’s iconic Golden Phase, blending Art Nouveau elegance with Byzantine influences. The frieze—divided into allegorical scenes—depicts humanity’s struggle against darkness, culminating in a choir of angels and the embrace of poetry. Klimt’s use of gilded textures, intricate patterns, and ethereal figures reflects his defiance of traditional academic art, cementing the work as a cornerstone of early modernism.

For color cohesion, introduce deep greens or burgundies in furnishings, echoing the frieze’s floral and drapery accents.
