At the left of one part of this work, five superimposed images of the same woman flow upwards in a golden stream and stretch their arms out to a singing choir showered with white and red roses, while next to them a couple embraces in an apse of gold. The various parts of this work are thematically joined by "hovering forms" or "floating genii" and Poetry is represented as a figure in a gold dress looking down into a harp like object. At the left of another section, a partially bald woman droops over three women with golden snakes in their hair, and on the right of that panel is a group of enormous snakes. In between those two scenes are three women representing unchastity, lust, and gluttony, who are next to a monster with mother of pearl eyes representing Typhon. In another section, figures representing Weak Humanity outstretch their arm

In another section, figures representing Weak Humanity outstretch their arms towards figures representing Victory, Sympathy, and a knight in golden armor bearing a sword representing "Armored Strength." Consisting of sections such as The Hostile Forces and The Angel Choir, this work was originally accompanied by a massive polychrome sculpture by Max Klinger at the 14th exhibition of the Vienna Secession. For 10 points, name this work intended to honor a certain composer, a work of Gustav Klimt.
