1939
Created in 1939, just a year before his death, this haunting figure shows Paul Klee's dramatic shift into his famous 'late style.' The pale, ghostly angel stares out with hollow black eyes under a crescent moon, looking less like a majestic heavenly messenger and more like a shy, nervous applicant waiting for an interview. Klee, who famously said a line is just 'a dot that went for a walk,' used these bold, thick outlines to define his world as his health failed, creating a look that is simple like a child's drawing but packed with deep, raw emotion.
