Held in a private collection, Emilie Flöge, Aged 17 (1891) holds an extraordinarily sentimental and historical place in Gustav Klimt’s oeuvre. Created in 1891—the year Klimt’s brother Ernst married Emilie’s sister Helene Flöge—this portrait marks the very beginning of the profound, lifelong relationship between Gustav Klimt and Emilie Flöge. Before becoming a pioneering haute-couture fashion designer in Vienna and Klimt’s ultimate muse (immortalized in The Kiss), seventeen-year-old Emilie is captured here with soft, lyrical tenderness. Originally drawn in delicate pastel, the composition balances precise anatomical drawing with a gentle, dreamlike atmosphere that presages Klimt’s future Secessionist portraiture.
