About the Artwork

“Hygieia” by Gustav Klimt is a captivating fragment from the larger painting “Medicine”, commissioned for the University of Vienna. Klimt’s Faculty paintings, including Hygieia, were revolutionary due to their innovative and symbolic approach. In this mesmerizing piece, Hygieia confronts the viewer with an almost scornful gaze, her haughtiness implied by the upraised chin and inscrutable eyes. Clad in an encompassing robe of red and gold, she holds a mysterious bowl—unclear whether she offers it or withholds it. The golden snake twines sinuously along her arm, a potent symbol of pharmacy that endures to this day. Hygieia, the Greek goddess of hygiene, health, and cleanliness, exudes power and danger. Her bare face and arms hint at sensuality, yet she remains enigmatic, her eyes hidden in shadow.
