Danaë by Gustav Klimt, 1907
The story behind it, from what I can find, is a princess shut in a tower by her father and a god who gets in by turning himself into a shower of gold. It's a small canvas too — under a metre either way, which you'd never guess from a photo of it.
Erisava: Did the gold get more attention here than she did?
