The Kiss by Gustav Klimt

I love this picture today as much as I did when I first saw it back in Valentine’s Day 2003.

Quoted:

The Kiss is a fascinating icon of the loss of self that lovers experience. Only the faces and hands of this couple are visible; all the rest is great swirl of gold, studded with colored rectangles as if to express visually the emotional and physical explosion of erotic love.
