''Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer II'' is a 1912 painting by Gustav Klimt. Adele Bloch-Bauer (1881–1925) was a refined art-loving Viennese salon lady, a patron and close friend of Gustav Klimt. ==Ownership of the painting== Adele Bloch-Bauer was the wife of Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer,〔Born Ferdinand Bloch, the son of David Bloch (also known as Abraham Bloch), a banker and sugar factory owner, and his wife Marie, née Straschnow. Ferdinand married Adele Bauer, the daughter of Moritz Bauer (director of the Vienna bank ''Wiener Bankverein'') and his wife Jeanette, née Honig.〕 a wealthy industrialist who sponsored the arts and supported Gustav Klimt. Adele Bloch-Bauer was the only model to be painted twice by Klimt; she also appeared in the much more famous ''Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I''. Adele's portraits had hung in the family home prior to their seizure by the Nazis during WWII. The Austrian museum where they resided after the war was reluctant to return them to their rightful owners, hence a protracted court battle in the United States and in Austria (see ''Republic of Austria v. Altmann'') ensued, which resulted in five Gustav Klimt paintings being returned to Maria Altmann, the niece of Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer, in January 2006. In November 2006, Christie's auction house sold ''Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer II'' at auction for almost $88 million, the fourth-highest priced piece of art at auction at the time.〔Christopher Michaud, "Christie's stages record art sale," Reuter's, November 9, 2006. Accessed November 9, 2006.〕 In the fall of 2014, Adele Bloch-Bauer II was given as a special long-term loan to the Museum of Modern Art in New York, by the private owner who purchased the painting in November 2006 at Christie's New York.〔http://www.moma.org/explore/inside_out/2014/09/05/now-in-the-galleries-gustav-klimts-adele-bloch-bauer-ii〕
