Nachtelijk feestmaal by Paul Klee, 1921

Step into a whimsical, geometric village where houses look like colorful tents and cones under a starry, scratchy sky. Paul Klee, a key figure in Expressionism, created this dreamlike scene in 1921 while teaching at the famous Bauhaus school. The dark, earthy tones mixed with bright pinks and greens give it a mysterious, almost musical rhythm—fitting, since Klee was also a talented violinist who believed art should function like music. He famously described his creative process as 'taking a line for a walk,' and you can see that playful, childlike energy in every jagged star and crooked roof.
