It is no coincidence that Klee's 'Camel' is one of his major works. It exemplifies the originality of the artist, who went his very own way in the midst of a bubbling art epoch. The painting is not either/or, it is everything at the same time. It is figurative - the camel is clearly recognisable. It is abstract in the assignment of colour planes and the graphic elements of circle and line. They can easily be understood as trees, but also as musical notation, showing the camel's swaying gait through (its) score - an image that can be seen and 'heard'. Original: Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen in Düsseldorf. High-quality reproduction on aluminium dibond behind 3 mm thick acrylic glass, with mounting. Format 120 x 80 cm (H/W).

In its composition of individual areas, 'Burg und Sonne' is still reminiscent of Klee's Tunis pictures, but already shows the transition to his expressive-abstract late work.

Nature as form, form as nature: In an era rich in stylistic trends, Klee was one of the solitaires who refused to be categorised in any of the prevailing genres. And even when he uses the term 'abstract', he does so in his very own definition: 'Being abstract as a painter does not mean abstracting from natural representational comparisons, but is based [...] on the extraction of pure pictorial relationships'. At the same time, he insisted that he had to start from nature - in order to then achieve a 'rebirth of nature in the picture', despite all his artistic and formal intentions. His 'Gladiolus Still Life' is a perfect example of this creative process. High-quality fine art giclée museum reproduction in 7 pigment colours on genuine laid watercolour paper. Solid wood framing with bevelled edge passe-partout, glazed. Limited edition of 499 copies, numbered on the reverse. Format approx. 58 x 47 cm (H/W). ars mundi exclusive edition.
'Hauptweg und Nebenwege' is one of Paul Klee's best-known paintings. It belongs to the group of his numerous layer and stripe paintings and was created in January 1929 after Klee's second trip to Egypt. In it, he processes his experiences of light and colour there - the atmospheric key to understanding an ancient culture. The blue of the Nile, the yellow-orange of the Egyptian sun and the layers of colour of the ornamental bands in the burial chambers of Assuan.

The 'seascape' is a genre in its own right. Originating from the understandable pride of ownership of rich shipowners who wanted their ships to be depicted, over time it became a subject that fascinated great painters per se, even inspiring them to incredible artistic experiments - just think of William Turner. But modernism also loved ships and the sea. For example, the great pointillist Henri-Edmond Cross (1856-1910) and, a generation later, the 'unique' Paul Klee (1879-1940).Paul Klee: 'Segelschiffe den Sturm abwartend': Original: 1917, watercolour, gouache and pencil on two-part cardboard, privately owned.
