At the Palace of the Legion of Honor in San Francisco is currently an exhibition of Klimt paintings. Above is The Virgin, a strange painting with I counted 6 heads. I presume the named person is the one with two arms in the center.
I love this landscape. All of his styles are very attractive.
This last example is a copy of a section from the Beethoven Frieze. I visited this in Vienna when I went there in 2007, and I was pleased to have recognized it. It is near the opera house, so when you go to Vienna to see the opera, be sure to drop by. It's an entire room with paintings up high on the wall. That's what makes it a frieze.
