Paul Klee Figurative Prints

German, 1879-1940

Paul Klee was a Swiss-born German artist. His highly individual style was influenced by movements in art that included Expressionism, Cubism and Surrealism.

Klee was a natural draftsman who experimented with and eventually deeply explored color theory, writing about it extensively; his lectures Writings on Form and Design Theory (Schriften zur Form und Gestaltungslehre) — which were published in English as the Paul Klee Notebooks — are held to be as important for modern art as Leonardo da Vinci's A Treatise on Painting was for the Renaissance.

Klee and his colleague, Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, both taught at the Bauhaus school of art, design and architecture in Germany. His works reflect his dry humor and his sometimes childlike perspective, his personal moods and beliefs, and his musicality.

L inspiré Self Portrait Marc Chagall Valentina Vava Lithograph 1963 Mourlot 398
By Marc Chagall
Located in Eversholt, Bedfordshire
Inspiration or L'inspiré - The artist and his wife, self-portrait. This is a self-portrait of the great artist, depicting him as lost in thought before one of his paintings, which is apparently related to his home country Russia, as suggested by the small figure in the lower right of the work. Chagall’s wife Valentina (“Vava”), who was also from Russia, is looking over his shoulder, full of longing. The small surreal elements that are characteristic of Chagall’s paintings are also present here: the silhouettes of the houses that seems to stick out of the painting and a figure with a flute or trombone standing on its head. Chagall Lithographe, Volume II of the catalogue raisonné of Chagall's lithographic work, see Mourlot 398, 1957-1962, Paris 1963, imprinted by Imprimerie Mourlot for the publisher André Sauret.

Questions About Paul Klee Figurative Prints
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    Paul Klee was famous for his artwork, which influenced a number of avant-garde styles. The Swiss-born German artist was a pioneer of Surrealist automatism, a way of drawing without focusing on conscious thought and instead letting lines occur automatically. He also made significant contributions to Primitivism, a style inspired by ancient techniques, and reductivism, which breaks familiar symbols down into their most basic parts. Some of Klee's most well-known works include Castle and Sun, Senecio, Cat and Bird, Fish Magic, Ad Parnassum, Angelus Novus and Flower Myth. Find a range of Paul Klee art on 1stDibs.
