		<description><![CDATA[Francisco Goya depicted reason in a deep slumber in the etching, “The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters“. On first glance, I can relate. Switch those monsters and animals for giant spiders and you would have an etching of one of my sleepless nights. Goya, however, had a much more meaningful purpose for this etching. ]]></description>

Gustav Klimt, The Kiss 1907-8. Oil on canvas Gustav Klimt was a pioneer within the Art Nouveau (Sezessionstil) movement in Austria. Within the organic lines and decorative elements you find a couple embraced in a kiss. On first glance you might not notice the tension caused by the woman&#8217;s awkward position.
