Masters of Masters of Art Hommage to Gustav Klimt Limited Edition 888

During history, great artists have told human experience in a universal language of form and beauty. The Montblanc Masters of Art collection celebrates their eternal contribution to the quest for perfection in art, a quest in which Montblanc pays homage and participates. An artist, thanks to his vision, participated in the emergence of Viennese Art Nouveau and the Golden Age: Gustav Klimt. The Masters of Art Tribute to Gustav Klimt Limited Edition 888 in Montblanc celebrates its active participation in Viennese secession and has emblematic elements of its Beethoven frieze, the large format masterpiece of its "gold cycle" created for the Secession building. The work like a yellow gold relief at the 750/1000 on the platinum cap, with its spirals and vertical lines symbolizing the strings of a lyre, evokes the golden decoration of the Beethoven frieze as well as the personification of poetry playing The lyre, whose sound could satisfy the thirst for happiness of humanity. The two -dimensional lines inspired by the reliefs of the facade of the secession building shine on the contrasting matt background of the platinum cap and barrel. The wedding of yellow gold at the 750/1000 and platinum elements on the cap and the barrel echoes the emblematic experimental and luxurious materials of Gustav Klimt. This interaction is enhanced with a cabochon in malachite at the cone level. The green shade of Malachite evokes spring, the renewal season. In recognition of Klimt's achievements for Viennese secession, the yellow gold inlays at the 750/1000 on the barrel has its secessionist monogram with the GK initials. The clip of the tribute to Gustav Klimt Limited Edition 888 is specially created in reference to the Pallas Athena of Gustav Klimt. Athena being the goddess of both war and the arts, she is represented launching the struggle for artistic freedom. The slightly curved lines, ended by three spirals, of the partially plated clip, partially coated with yellow gold from the Limited Edition 888 evoke the decoration of the wrought metal frame. The 750/1000 gold feather made by hand made from the tribute to Gustav Klimt Limited Edition 888 is decorated with finely engraved graphic elements from the typical geometric language used by Gustav Klimt in many of his works.
