''The Kiss'' (''Der Kuss'' in German; originally exhibited as ''Liebespaar''[[note]]"lovers"[[/note]]) is an oil and gold leaf painting by Austrian symbolist painter Creator/GustavKlimt. Painted in 1907 and 1908, it's associated with the ArtNouveau, Arts and Crafts, and the Vienna Secession art movements.

The painting depicts two lovers wearing patterned gold robes in a passionate embrace. The man bends down to kiss the woman, whose face is serene and upturned to receive it. They are in a field of flowers against a flat gold background. Klimt, who liked depicting love and intimacy in his work, was inspired by several older media, such as illuminated manuscripts and Byzantine murals, for the usage of gold and flatness of the painting.

It currently hangs in the Belvedere in Vienna.
