This classic art wallpaper is a detail of Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I (also known as The Lady in Gold or The Woman in Gold) painting by Gustav Klimt. He painted it in 1907 during his golden phase inspired by the early-Christian Byzantine gold mosaics he studied in the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna. This famous painting was stolen by the nazis in 1941. In 2006 it returned to its heirs and was sold for $135 million breaking the record price for a painting.
