I was looking through an online gallery of Gustav Klimt: http://www.overstockart.com/klimtga... I am looking for a painting that would symbolize passion. Klimt has so much passion and I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to which painting to pick?

Looking at the pictures displayed on the site you mention, the painting that comes closest to any passion, seems to be the 'Death & Life', although it seems almost as systematic and intellectual as some of the better-known paintings.
He does seem particularly excited about the 'Woman with a Fan', though.

When you consider Klimt as an artist of passion, it is his drawings that you need to look at. Here is one:

As far as his oil paintings are concerned, I would nominate "Judith and Holofernes" which you can see here, for the femme fatale quality of this painting:

The Kiss and it's the most popular by far

"The Kiss", but you must know there is more than one that he painted.
