Adele, the wife of a wealthy Jewish industrialist Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer, is posed in an ambiguous position, bedecked in precious jewelry.

It's pretty standard man vs. nature stuff. It's also a pretty simple parable about the perils of greed. All of this would be fine if “Gold” had more to it, but aside from its undeniable style, there's very little there there.
