Ghost Lights, belongs to the group of symbolist paintings within Klimt's oeuvre from 1898 to 1907. A stream of women whirls through the right part of the picture. Ghost Lights were a much discussed matter at the turn of the last century in art as well as science circles. Popular belief was that they were the lost souls of dead children and of little gnomes and goblins trying to lead people astray.
