Immerse yourself in the Gilded World of Klimt, with this week’s Free Quilt Pattern … based on his ‘Tree of Life’ painting from 1905.
The Tree of Life is an important symbol in many philosophies and mythologies. It illustrates the connection between heaven and earth. It is also the only landscape created by the artist during his ‘Golden Period’. The painting was originally a study for a mosaic commission.
With its branches reaching for the sky, the tree roots pushing into the earth beneath, the painting illustrates the connection between heaven and earth. It is also considered an expression of masculine and feminine existing as one.
This 60″ x 70″ quilt uses a central gilded panel, plus 9 coordinates from the Klimt collections. This iconic painting is now at the Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna, Austria. With this golden quilt, you can bring this iconic symbology into your own home…or give this as an opulent gift to an art history buff.
… featuring the ‘Gustav Klimt’ collection by Robert Kaufman Fabrics.
