L’Attente Klimt a Gauche Fonce is a jacquard wall hanging tapestry also called The Waiting. It is a reproduction from Gustav Klimt, an Austrian artist (1862 – 1918). Woven on a dark background in cotton and lurex, it is lined with a plain beige cotton fabric. The Waiting is the left part of the painting called The Plank of Stoclet (1905 – 1909). This plank is made up of three parts: The Waiting, The Tree of Life, and The Achievement.
