Description
Klimt took up landscape painting in 1898 and devoted considerable energies to it during his summer holidays on the Attersee. This painting of a tall poplar was one of two he painted of the same subject. This canvas has an atypically low horizon line. A small chapel is just visible behind the stand of trees on the left.
