1. Gustav Klimt, Judith and the Head of Holofernes (Judith I), 1901, oil on canvas, 84 x 42 cm, Austrian Gallery Belvedere, Vienna. Source
2. Gustav Klimt, Judith II (Salome), 1909, oil on canvas, 178 x 46 cm, Musei Civici Veneziani, Venice. Source
In both his depictions of this particular subject, Klimt chose to show Judith holding the head of Holofernes, rather than presenting the decapitation itself. Furthermore, the compositional focus in both cases is the glamourous figure of Judith; the head of the Assyrian general is in fact cut off by the painting’s border and a dark sack in the earlier and later versions respectively.
