Portrait Of Fritza Riedler, 1906 By Gustav Klimt. In Portrait Of Fritza Riedler, The Treatment Of The Women's White Dresses Is Very Close, As Are The Geometrical Blocks Of Colour In The Background. Fritza Riedler, However, Is Seated, And Here Klimt Has Let His Imagination Take Over. The Armchair In Which She Sits - Perfectly Realistic In The Preparatory Drawings - Has Virtually Disappeared, Becoming A Two-Dimensional Outline Filled In With G Old And Silver Eye-Shaped Motifs. The Gold And Silver Are Picked Up By The Small Squares Dotted Across The Background Wall.
