Pássaro azul-Abóbora
1939
Created in 1939 during the final year of his life, this piece showcases Paul Klee's 'late style,' where he stripped art down to its simplest, most childlike forms. The bright blue bird with its spiky crest and the round blue pumpkin float against a dark, earthy background, defined by bold, thick black lines typical of Expressionism. Klee was suffering from a terminal illness at the time, yet his work became larger, bolder, and more joyful, as if he was racing against time to capture the essence of life in simple shapes.
