in his painting villa on the attersee, klimt again resorts to this drawing technique by outlining the objects in black, and in the precise way he depicts the structure of the objects, such as the shingles on the roof or the flowers on the shrubs. this carpet-like structure, which uniformly covers the surface of the painting with colored speckles, makes the objects appear incorporeal. however, the various green, yellow, and red tones provide coloristic unanimity, and the evenness of the colored texture gives an impression of complete harmony.
