Vienna 1900 is entirely dedicated to the development of Viennese arts and crafts between 1890 and 1938, tells the story of the search for and development of a unique Viennese style, and sheds lights on the sociopolitical aspects relevant to Viennese Modernism. Gustav Klimt’s Stoclet Frieze Cartoons is one of the outstanding achievements of art around 1900 and one of Gustav Klimt’s most important works.
