THE ARTIST. Austrian painter Wilhelm List (1864–1918) co-founded the Vienna Secession with renowned artist Gustav Klimt (1862–1918), exhibiting at the very first exhibition of the group in March 1898. The Secessionists strove to break free of the constraints of the academic art establishment. List’s artwork was a mixture of portraits, landscapes and genre paintings, often with mythological subjects. Magnolia is among List’s most well-known works. Its intricate depiction of a beautiful tree in bloom, with a background of still waters, has a spiritual quality that evokes a sense of peace.

THE FINAL WORD. As William Morris said, "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful."
