And now, just like with other vintage things, it’s rare to find one that’s also in a frame. Of course, like most incredible art, you can still buy prints and frame them. But somehow, it’s just not the same as finding a vintage one. The stone horse book ends are marvelous! I can remember looking at pieces like those, back in the day, but they were out of my price range. Good price on those. I also love the amber glass pieces.

​@@taralynn7065 This! My first thought was dorm room.

Gustave Klimt, not "Klimit", he`s very famous, I saw the most amazing immersive exposition of his works in Barcelona last year, where they project his artworks all over the rooms (walls, floor, roof). It was magical! His works are very unique and beautiful. One thing about his original work is the use of real gold on some paintings, because he was actually trained as a goldsmith in his father`s studio before becoming a painter, and he used this knowledge in his art by applying gold leaf to some of his works, like the one you got, which is called "The Kiss"!

the kiss has been commercialized so much that it is now become one of the most famous paintings of all time. i'm actually shocked you've never seen it or heard of gustav klimt before.

Girl you explaining what The kiss by Klimt is was too much for me 😂 one of the most famous pieces in art history

Yes, Klimt is so popular. My daughter has the same size print of the "The Kiss" also. Speaking of (Klimt - say in one syllable), you must see the movie "Woman in Gold", unbelievable true movie, so heartfelt, since my grandmother was from Vienna, Austria. The movie has to do with one of his painting that ended up in a L.A. area art museum, well the story is impactful to say the least. Love your blog! Take care.

Girl, this is crazy, I just sat at home eating a pizza, I came back this afternoon from Vienna, and this morning I went to the Belvedere and saw Klimt's 'The Kiss' in person!! what a coincidence. You can't believe how stunning it is, I spent over 2o minutes just staring at it. Few times have I been so impacted by seeing a famous art piece. You need to look his art up, he's very popular and for good reason

That painting was massively reproduced at Ikea a few years ago, I also thought about getting it but there were just so many of them that I assumed they'd be in every home.

Your reaction to that Gustav Klimt print is so funny to me as a Swede, almost every home had that from IKEA 10-15 years ago, it was really popular :'D he did some amazing art! but "the kiss" is the most popular. My dad had that in his apartment and I always thought it was a big owl hahaha

I bought the IKEA print second hand a few years ago. I got some use out of it but have since primed it for a new life.

The Kiss is a favorite. Klimt was the opening artist chosen for the first expo at Atelier des Lumieres in Paris. Suggestion: make some time during your next Paris trip for a fun immersive experience near the Pere Lachaise Cemetery (actually, coincidentally, it just re-opened for another short run). I have the umbrella with the Kiss on it--- quite a nice bright pop of yellow and gold on a rainy day! It makes me smile (plus: It's a little way to attract a nod and smile from other art lovers).

👍 Great idea the Père Lachaise cemetery, Jim Morrison was buried there, he is not easy to be found but with the map given at the entrance, it’s possible to find him. It is a beautiful place to visit, preferably in a sunny day.

I'm super surprised you didn't know that Gustav Klimt painting, that piece is so stunning. My favorite by him is Mother and Child because it looks like me and my mom, she has a print of it in her office it always makes me smile

Loved the pieces you found for yourself and the ones for your friends. I actually have the same amber bowl. They originally made what they called console bowls with low, matching candle holders, one for either side. They were named for their placement on a console table - much like yours in your living room - but they would also be seen on a buffet in a dining room or even a dining room table. I'm excited to see the finished projects for your friends! The Klimt print is iconic and would be gorgeous in any space large enough to support it. And that actually brings up something that I like very much about you. You found it and fell in love with it and raved about it. Then when you learned it was actually a famous painting by a well-known artist, you shared what you learned for anyone else who might not know and still loved it. There are sooo many who would not have used that footage and who would have reframed that scenario as you knew all about the original painting, etc. I love your authenticity and your lack of need to be a know-it-all. Your enjoyment of learning new things and sharing what you discover is a delightful trait. Don't ever lose it! 🩷

The tool box was probably more a fishing box. "The kiss" by Gustav Klimt was in my bedroom for sooooo long ! With another painting called "Love", darker but beautiful also.

The Kiss is is one of the most famous paintings in the world… so it would kind of be like hanging a poster of the Mona Lisa. Like you can do it but maybe hang it in a self aware way with other posters rather than other paintings or something, know what I mean?

Haha! Klimt’s kiss and Van Gogh’s sunflowers were the two posters every college girl had in their dorm room in the early 90’s! Ha! Love those glass pieces!!!

OMG, The Kiss has been reprinted millions of times and is everywhere. Hard to believe you haven’t seen it before. I have several Klimt prints and love his work.

I love Gustav Klimt. I had that same large print (The Kiss) in my bedroom for years, I mean years. The frame broke last year and I miss it. When I was in Austria several years ago, I was able to see most of his work at a Palace museum. 🧡

The Kiss original is in Belvedere Palace in Vienna and it’s absolutely stunning in person. Adorned with real gold and sliver that doesn’t come across in prints, highly highly recommend seeing in person for anyone who is able to!!

LOVE Gustav Klimt's "The Kiss"---unforgettable art...

The Gustav Klimt print is meant to be vertical with the heads at the top.

I have the same print by Gustav Klimt. When I found it in antique shop I immediately connected it to how Felt when I fell in love with my Husband. It symbolized the feelings of protection and adoration that I felt then and forever. I lost him to cancer but it still hangs in my bedroom as a reminder of our everlasting 💕

I saw Macenna at the Topanga flea this weekend and I got more starstuck than when I see celebrities. Would have embarrassed myself if I said hi hahaha It's such a good flea though!

My great grandma had a set of those yellow glass canisters and it brought tears to my eyes because I miss her so much😅 I love that you find beauty in the old❤❤

You found some beautiful things at the Flea Market, I love the amber glass that you found. Yours and Romeos photo is gorgeous. Your talents are never ending it seems.

Gustav Klimt painted The Kiss that you showed us. That is a very popular print. I bought it back in the 90's for $110 framed. You got a good deal. I have since bought 2 more prints of his work. I really enjoy his perspective

The Kiss is my fav of all time… I have a print I bought in Austria in the 90’s still hanging in my home - I’ve changed the frame thru the years to suit changing tastes. He’s Art Nouveau era. So gorgeous

That’s “The Kiss” have had it on my wall since I was in high school (in the 1990’s). I recently bought it for my friend, who always loved it, from ikea when I saw that they had it. I am so surprised you don’t know what it is! It’s so famous!!!!

Wow that art brings back memories, it was one of the first things my husband and i bought when we moved in together. We got it from ikea 😂😂 i just recently donated it because it no longer fits our home, but it's still a wonderful piece ❤

I just said, out loud to myself, “I’M SO STRESSED OUT!!” Then I got this notification and felt instantly better 😂

I didn't learn about Kilmt until recently! My aunt gave me a piece done by him called Judith and I hung her in my bathroom hallway 🥰 this one that you got is gorgeous as well! Great find

I love seeing “The Kiss” in this video! We had a large print of this hanging in my grandmother’s house and it was what inspired my love of art. I now have the piece in my home and have visited Vienna to see the painting in person! It was spectacular and is very large, much larger than 8 feet high. Just a note I’ve seen in the comments come up- no Klimt is unfortunately not as popular in the States! I don’t know why, the only reason I can think of is that most of his work is in Austria and does not travel often. I am aware of two Klimt works that live in the States, both of which are in New York. His work is beautiful though and so incredibly original, maybe more people will become curious after seeing this video.

Love your finds. I have a green bowl like your amber find. I bought it at an estate sale in the 80's. It is a favorite in the Living or dining room. Please consider moving your oil painting from the bathroom. I know people mentikned humidity before, but also the hair spray. My print, similarly placed, and covered in glass, would get spray on it, but of courese I could clean it off.

The Kiss is the most popular painting of this artist. He actually used gold leaf on this one as well as several others on his.

I'm even more excited for the holidays now that you are working with Anthropologie on a table scape & Christmas tree!! 😍

It's funny that I know of Klimt because of Ikea. They used to always use prints of this painting in their displays 😂

I didn't know I needed that print until just now. It was beautiful. It will be stunning with a simple wood frame.

That's a very famous painting by Gustav Klimt. It is called "The Kiss"...
