Gustav Klimt’s Lady with Fan (1918) is among the artist’s final works, completed in the year of his death. Measuring 100 × 100 cm and painted in oil on canvas, it captures his enduring fascination with the female form while incorporating stylistic influences from Japonism and Rococo ornamentation. The sitter remains unidentified, though exhibition records list an alternative title,Bailarina(Tänzerin), suggesting she may have been a dancer—reflecting Klimt’s preference for sitters comfortable with performance and poised self-presentation.
