Decadence and Social Degeneracy

Accessibility Description: Square gray headstone, with a bed of ivy at its base that reads, in weird choppy font: Gustav Klimt. There are several cradle graves behind it filled with ivy or flowers. On the left and right of the Klimt grave are birch trees, held straight by wooden frames. There is also a little lantern next to one of the trees.
