Straight and curved in the pictorial symbols Il bacio, G. Klimt



Il bacio, G. Klimt


The work is based on a classic pyramid scheme and it is characterized by a complicated network of contrasts between straight and curved lines.
Lines must express feminine softness and masculine rigor, spiritualism and concrete nature, eroticism and asceticism, grace and force, pliability and toughness. Straight lines and square shapes decorate the dress of the man to emphasize his calm and force, while the dress of the woman is rich in floral curved to represent the delicacy and fragility of woman.
