Klimt's Kiss

A masterpiece so they say today but a century ago back in another day; scathing ridicule ensued on that portrait they knew only of paled love and lust as The Kiss exposed disgust. as the times change, it is viewed in a newer exchange simple lovers kiss endeared and reputation now revered. In the world's artistic wonder that plays out yesterdays beauty with kisses on the mouth are more exposed and open to physical exploration confounded and plagued by sensual interpretation; the artist's mind revealed and openly exposed in the secrets of his heart deeply in the kisses throws. Perhaps a little closer look is needed indulging in the passionate embrace cheated by the colors flow of yellows and gold as legs and hands and bodies enfold; so bold and brave an image before its time the lover's kiss is quite sublime.
