A Portrait Without Silence

Friederike Maria Beer stands at the centre of the canvas in a richly patterned coat and swirling dress, her expression composed and direct. But the world around her is anything but still. Every centimetre of the background is filled with East Asian figures, drummers, warriors, dancers, and masked performers in yellows, greens, pinks, and reds, drawn from a Japanese lacquer screen that Klimt owned and placed behind his subject. Signed and dated 1916, this is one of the most compositionally ambitious portraits Klimt ever painted and one of the most visually extraordinary works in the history of the Vienna Secession. As an advanced paint by numbers for adults it is the most intricate and rewarding piece in our Famous Art collection. Part of our Paint by Numbers for Adults collection.

  • Advanced paint by numbers for adults: the most complex composition in our Famous Art range, with dozens of individual figures, decorative elements, and pattern sections across the full canvas
  • Intricate paint by numbers: East Asian background figures in yellows, greens, pinks, and reds surround the central portrait in Klimt's most maximalist style
  • Three colour depths: 24 colours for a bold graphic read, 36 for detailed background figure work, 48 for the ultimate complexity across every pattern and figure
  • Three frame options: rolled canvas, DIY wooden frame kit, or fully ready-framed and ready to hang
  • Masterpiece paint by numbers: based on Klimt's Portrait of Friederike Maria Beer (1916), one of the most elaborate figurative compositions of the Art Nouveau era

Why this is the ultimate Klimt challenge

The Background Is the Painting

Where most portrait painters left backgrounds plain or suggestive, Klimt filled every corner with life. The East Asian figures behind Friederike, each one a complete character with its own gesture, expression, costume, and colour, are not decoration but an equal presence in the composition. In the 48-colour version, these background sections are fully mapped with the tonal complexity Klimt painted into each figure, and working through them section by section is one of the most absorbing experiences our intricate paint by numbers range offers. For guidance on managing complex compositions, our 7 pro techniques guide covers everything from section sequencing to wet-edge management.

The Figure at the Centre

Friederike herself is a study in contrast against the chaos behind her: pale, still, and composed, her grey fur-trimmed coat and boldly patterned dress a quieter note against the vivid yellows and greens of the background. Painting the central figure after the background sections are dry rewards the painter with that same effect Klimt intended: a woman who holds her own against an entire world of movement and colour. For everything you need to know about painting portrait figures with confidence, our portrait painting guide is the place to start.

The Crown of the Klimt Series

Alongside The Dancer, The Girlfriends, and Johanna Staude, Friederike Maria Beer completes our four-work Klimt series and is unquestionably the most ambitious of the four. All are available in the same colour depths and frame options, making them an extraordinary set for a gallery wall of painted masterpieces. For a personal alternative at the same quality level, our custom paint by numbers service creates a numbered canvas from any photograph, or our custom pet paint by numbers does the same for an animal portrait. Browse the full Famous Art collection for more masterpieces.

(Tip: Begin with the large background colour zones, the yellow-greens, deep greens, and pinks, before moving to the individual figures within them. Establishing the background tones first prevents you from painting yourself into corners between figures and gives the entire composition its chromatic foundation. The central figure and her coat should be the last major section you complete. New to ambitious canvases? Our 10-step setup guide covers workspace and sequencing before you start.)

⭐ Choosing Your Perfect Kit

  • 24 Colours (Standard): Great for a classic paint by numbers feel with bold, distinct colour blocks. Perfect for beginners and simpler designs.
  • 36 Colours (Most Popular): Highly recommended for most paintings. This option captures subtle details in faces, landscapes, and pets, creating a richer, more nuanced result.
