127) Hilde Roth

Hilde Roth, sitter for Gustav Klimt.

-"The names of the models and other women in his life do not always survive, partly because Flöge burnt much of Klimt's correspondence after his death from a stroke in 1918. One who has been identified by chance recently was Hilde Roth, a beautiful Bohemian redhead from Budapest whose face can be seen Lady with Hat and feather Boa (c1910), and voluptuous body - probably - in Goldfish (1901-02)."
