Avenue of Schloss Kammer Park《卡默城堡公园大道》

While Gustav Klimt’s first landscapes date from the early 1880s， it was not until the late 1890s that he turned consistently to landscape subjects， during summer vacations spent in the picturesque Salzkammergut， outside the city of Salzburg. Landscape painting enabled him to experiment， free from the pressure of commissioned work and the distractions of the metropolis. After the early 1900s， when Klimt eschewed large public commissions and became more dependent upon selling his work， a ready supply of new landscapes proved useful.

古斯塔夫·克里姆特最早的風景画可追溯至1880年代初，但其实直到1890年代末他才转向持续的风景画创作，那会儿他会在夏天到萨尔茨堡城外风景如画的萨尔茨卡默古特度假。风景画让他能尝试新东西，没有了委托创作的压力和大都市的纷扰。1900年代初，克里姆特不再接受大型的公共委托任务，而开始更加依赖卖画为生，事实证明，此后新的风景画源源不断，派上了用场。

Klimt’s landscapes are now a highly admired aspect of his oeuvre. A particular feature of the works is their standard size and square format， a device Klimt used with their exhibition in mind. The uniformity of his landscapes in this one respect highlights their diversity in many others. Throughout， it is possible to point to corresponding shifts in Klimt’s approach to the portraits and allegories on which he worked in Vienna. Many unfinished landscapes were taken back to his Vienna studio for completion.

克里姆特的风景画如今是他作品中备受推崇的一部分。这些作品有个共同的特点，即都采用统一尺寸的方形画布——这是克里姆特早就设计好的展览样式。他的风景画在这方面的一致性突出了它们在其他诸多方面的多样性。纵观其所有作品，可以看到克里姆特在维也纳创作肖像画和寓言性画作时绘画技法的相应转变。许多未完成的风景画是他带回维也纳画室完成的。

Klimt’s landscapes express his wider concerns with biological growth and the cycle of life. Their dazzling decorative surfaces and abstracted motifs align him with emergent modernist tendencies.

克里姆特的风景画表达了他对生物生长和生命轮回的更广泛关注。炫目的装饰性表面和抽象化的意象让他与新兴的现代主义潮流不谋而合。

Avenue of Schloss Kammer Park depicts the avenue leading to the Kammer Castle， which is one of his famous Attersee paintings. Attersee， also known as Kammersee， is the largest lake of the Salzkammergut region in the Austrian state of Upper Austria.

克里姆特创作过多幅描绘阿特湖的名画，《卡默城堡公园大道》是其中之一。这幅画描绘了通往卡默城堡的大道。阿特湖，又称卡默湖，是奥地利上奥地利州萨尔茨卡默古特地区最大的湖泊。
