Painting Love
I’ve researched everywhere but i can’t find anything Klimt’s painting titled ‘Love’ 1895?
Before i do my art notes and speculate what i think the painting could be about i want to know if anyone knows anything about the painting or the context behind it?
Other than the obvious about the fact it was oil on canvas and has two people in it. I need to know things like who are the two people, who are the ghosts, when is supposed to be set. etc
Really appreciate any help 
The spectral figures represent the ages of life, contrasting the passage of time against the sensation of “eternity” — the sense of “forever” — that falling in love may evoke in lovers — especially new lovers.
The woman’s clothing seems very late 19th century, so the suggestion is not of an earlier period. The lovers are not anyone in particular so far as I know. The style is quite 19th-century romantic — very different from the one that Klimt was to develop later. There’s no specific setting; the focus is simply on the concept of love, not a place.
