Question
Nikolaus Dumba’s admiration for one person in this profession led him to commission a now destroyed portrait in which that person sits in profile in front of a hazy group of people. A person in this profession may have been allegorized as John the Evangelist in a sculpture that depicts a bronze eagle resting near his feet. In a painting titled for a person from this profession, a topless woman with a vivid blue skirt appears in a section that also includes three nude, black-haired (*) gorgons. Max Klinger’s bare-chested sculpture of a person in this profession was made for an exhibit that also featured a painting allegorizing one of that person’s works with the ape-like Typhoeus and a knight covered in gold leaf. For 10 points, a member of what profession inspired Gustav Klimt to adorn the walls of the Vienna Secession Building with his Beethoven Frieze? ■END■
