"Loan from the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere Gustav Klimt, Beethoven Frieze: The Hostile Forces. The hostile forces. The giant Typhoeus, against whom even the gods battle in vain (the monster with mother-of-pearl eyes extending across the entire front wall with his blue wings and snake-like appendages); his daughters, the three gorgons (the three women standing to the left of Typhoeus). Sickness, madness, death (the mask-like female heads above the gorgon heads)." -From the Secession webpage. Image courtesy of Secession Archive.
