Gustav Klimt

Gustav Klimt (July 14, 1862 – February 6, 1918) was an Austrian Symbolist painter

The Gold Book d'Odette
Box and Line
Onok-art

A couple of other paintings I think about when seeing this:

Albert Edelfelt and Finnish singer Aino Achté

Sargent and Madame X - that evening gown is very daring...

and Renoir's Umbrellas

All three painters are also my favorites as you can guess :-D
