This beautiful Klimt art scarf has been beautifully printed with Gustav Klimt's famous painting "The Sunflower" which was done between 1906 and 1907 during his Golden Phase. The single sunflower stands alone with a background of greens and many colored flowers below. The shape and leaves in The Sunflower is remarkably like the form of the lovers in The Kiss. These two of Klimt's best known works were exhibited for the first time in 1908 at the Art Show Vienna.
