For this new painting of The Knight, Klimt was inspired by Richard WagnerÕs vision on the first part of BeethovenÕs ninth symphony Ð ÒA great battle taken up by the soul, which is struggling for joy with the pressure of the hostile force which stands between us and the earthÕs happiness.Ó This vision appears to be the basic thought behind this first part.
