About the artwork

Artwork: after Gustav Klimt.

The Virgins painting contains multiple flowers representing evolution into womanhood. While sketching for the painting, Klimt wanted his models to make larger than life physical poses. There are six women in the painting (or one woman with four sides to her persona) and all of them seem to be intertwined. The lines are clear and the human themes of love, sexuality and regeneration are obvious in the circular cyclical shape of the work. In painting The Virgins the different life stages are represented by the same woman. Dislocated body parts in outrageous poses move as if under water. The empty shell of a woman's dress at the bottom gives birth to a child (the next generation) via a cascading waterfall of color. Description derived from The Klimt Museum records. The original painting is held at The National Gallery of Prague.

The range of blue hues and sharp contrasts with highlighting colors enables the pocket square to pair easily with a wide range of color palettes. The matte-look of the pocket square makes it ideal for business casual wear or pairing with sport coats and jeans.
