Housed in the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art in Hartford, Connecticut, Two Girls with an Oleander (Zwei Mädchen mit Oleander, 1890) is an exquisite, peaceful portrait painted during a crucial turning point in Gustav Klimt’s early career. Created in 1890—the same year Klimt received the Emperor’s Prize for The Old Burgtheater—the composition features two young girls in soft profile and three-quarters view, leaning gently near a lush, flowering oleander bush set against a classical relief background. The work blends late 19th-century Viennese Romanticism and Alma-Tadema-inspired classical antiquity with Klimt’s signature sensitivity to texture, delicate skin tones, and subtle emotional intimacy, foreshadowing the lush decorative backgrounds of his later Vienna Secession masterpieces.
