Paul Klee: Picture 'Gladiolus still life' (1932), framed

Product information "Paul Klee: Picture 'Gladiolus still life' (1932), framed"

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.
