DESIGNER'S NOTES

A large turquoise Fox & Chave silk habotai scarf featuring a rendition of the main pattern from the work Hope II by Gustav Klimt (1862-1918).

Unusually, Klimt never painted a self-portrait.

Despite being one of the most celebrated artists of his time, Klimt had little interest in capturing his own likeness, famously stating, "I am less interested in myself as a subject for a painting than I am in other people, above all women."

Unlike many of his contemporaries, who frequently depicted themselves, Klimt remained almost invisible in his own work, channeling all his artistic energy into the figures he painted, such as in Hope II. This absence of self-portraits adds to the mystique surrounding him, making him an enigmatic figure whose legacy is defined entirely by the beauty he created rather than by his own image.

COLOURS

STYLING

A Fox & Chave habotai silk scarf can be worn with the classic knot style or a pussycat bow. You can even create a shawl effect by knotting two scarves together behind your neck and allowing them to drape over your shoulders. More scarf styling ideas are available in this wonderful How to Tie a Scarf book.
