Берлинский сецессион
Of the various secessions, the Vienna Secession (1897) remains the most influential. Led by Gustav Klimt, who favored the ornate Art Nouveau style over the prevailing styles of the time, it was inspired by the Berlin Secession (1898) and the Munich Secession (1892). Determined to create a "new country," Klimt would later name it "Sezessionstil", or "Secession style."
