Gustav Klimt - Kissing - Gold - Robert Kaufman - Quilting Cotton Panel

This is a fabric panel reproduction of Gustav  Klimt’s famous "The Kiss". The design highlights the ornate, gilded aesthetic characteristic of Klimt’s “golden phase.”

Panel Format
It is a panel rather than yardage, meaning the artwork is printed as a single focal image you use whole or cut selectively, rather than a repeating motif.

Dimensions
The panel measures approximately 24" × 44" (some sites also list 24" × 44/45").

Fabric Content & Weight
100% cotton (quilting‑weight cotton)
Weight: ~4.3 oz per square yard (or ~145.8 g/m²)
Metallic / Gold Highlights
The printed image includes metallic gold ink / foil accents to replicate the gilded effect of the original artwork.
Color / Visual Feel
Predominantly gold tones, with contrasting darker areas (hair, shadows, facial details) and ornamental patterning typical of Klimt’s style. The metallics give it a luminous effect under light.
Usage
Being quilting cotton, this panel is suited for quilts, wall hangings, art quilts, tote bags, or other decorative textile projects where you want a dramatic centerpiece. The metallic elements make it more of a “feature” panel.
Care / Sewing Notes

Because of the metallic inking, take care with pressing (use a pressing cloth, lower heat) so as not to damage the metallic finish.

Pre‑washing may shift metallic colors slightly; test a scrap or edge first.

Use cotton or polyester thread that works well with quilting weight fabrics.

When quilting through areas with metallic print, a finer quilting design or stabilization may help mitigate distortion.

Manufacturer / Licensing
