Paul Klee - Landschaften

Numerous works by Paul Klee feature the term "landscape" in their titles, yet these often refer to imaginary landscapes rather than representations of specific places. This volume showcases Klee's landscapes through 40 works, ranging from his early sketches inspired by Impressionism, to his first colorful watercolors, the works from his Bauhaus period, and finally to his late works. In juxtaposition with excerpts from Klee's wonderfully poetic text about the image as landscape, the stroll becomes a metaphor for the contemplation of the artwork, unfolding step by step just like the creation of the artwork itself. A fine art book with much to discover.
