Vienna is the federal capital, largest city and one of nine states of Austria. Vienna is Austria's primate city, with a population of about 1.9 million, and its cultural, economic, and political center. It is the 7th-largest city by population within city limits in the European Union. Until the beginning of the 20th century, it was the largest German-speaking city in the world, and before the splitting of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in World War I, the city had 2 million inhabitants. Today, it has the second largest number of German speakers after Berlin. Vienna is host to many major international organizations, including the United Nations and OPEC. The city is located in the eastern part of Austria and is close to the borders of the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary. These regions work together in a European Centrope border region. Along with nearby Bratislava, Vienna forms a metropolitan region with 3 million inhabitants. In 2001, the city center was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In July 2017 it was moved to the list of World Heritage in Danger.
Apart from being regarded as the City of Music because of its musical legacy, Vienna is also said to be "The City of Dreams" because it was home to the world's first psychoanalyst – Sigmund Freud. The city's roots lie in early Celtic and Roman settlements that transformed into a Medieval and Baroque city, and then the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It is well known for having played an essential role as a leading European music center, from the great age of Viennese Classicism through the early part of the 20th century. The historic center of Vienna is rich in architectural ensembles, including Baroque castles and gardens, and the late-19th-century Ringstraße lined with grand buildings, monuments, and parks.
Vienna is known for its high quality of life. In a 2005 study of 127 world cities, the Economist Intelligence Unit ranked the city first (in a tie with Vancouver and San Francisco) for the world's most liveable cities. Between 2011 and 2015, Vienna was ranked second, behind Melbourne. 2018, it replaced Melbourne as the number one spot. For ten consecutive years (2009–2019), the human-resource-consulting firm Mercer ranked Vienna first in its annual "Quality of Living" survey of hundreds of cities around the world. Monocle's 2015 "Quality of Life Survey" ranked Vienna second on a list of the top 25 cities in the world "to make a base within."
The UN-Habitat classified Vienna as the most prosperous city in the world in 2012/2013.[40] The city was ranked 1st globally for its culture of innovation in 2007 and 2008, and sixth globally (out of 256 cities) in the 2014 Innovation Cities Index, which analyzed 162 indicators in covering three areas: culture, infrastructure, and markets. Vienna regularly hosts urban planning conferences and is often used as a case study by urban planners.
グスタフ・クリムト（独: Gustav Klimt , 1862年7月14日 - 1918年2月6日）は、世紀末ウィーンを代表する帝政オーストリアの画家。
グスタフ・クリムトは1862年にウィーン郊外のバウムガルテン（ペンツィング）に生まれた。父エルンストはボヘミア出身の彫版師、母アンナは地元ウィーン出身であり、クリムトは7人兄弟の第2子であった。1876年に博物館付属工芸学校に入学した。後に弟のエルンスト・クリムト とゲオルク・クリムト もこの学校に学び、それぞれ彫刻師、彫金師となってクリムトの作品を飾る額の設計をおこなっている。工芸学校でクリムトは石膏像のデッサンや古典作品の模写を中心とした古典主義的な教育を受けた。
1879年にクリムトは弟エルンストおよび友人のフランツ・マッチュ と共に共同で美術やデザインの請負を始めた。ハンス・マカルトの影響を受け、1884年にマカルトが死去すると、クリムトは彼の継承者と見なされた。
卒業後に3人は芸術家商会 （Künstlercompagnie） を設立した。劇場装飾を中心とした仕事はすぐに軌道に乗り、フィウメ、ブカレストなどへも派遣されるようになった。1886年から1888年まではウィーンのリングシュトラーセ（リンク大通り）沿いに建てられたブルク劇場の装飾を引き受けており、この功によって後に金功労十字賞を授与されている。ウィーン市からの依頼を受け1888年に製作した『旧ブルク劇場の観客席』は観劇する当時のウィーン社交界の人々を正確に描き第一回皇帝賞をうけるなど高く評価された。同じくリングシュトラーセ沿いの美術史美術館でも装飾の仕事を行っている。ウィーン美術界における名声を確立したクリムトは、1891年にクンストラーハウス（ウィーン美術家組合）に加入した。1893年に早くもウィーン美術アカデミー教授への推薦をうけたが、結局任命されることはなかった。1892年には父と弟のエルンストが死去している。
