Original lithographic invitation by Paul Klee for exhibition at the Fondation Maeght in 1977.

Paul Klee was a Swiss-born German artist, widely regarded as one of the most influential figures of 20th-century modern art. His work is notable for its unique blend of expressionism, cubism, surrealism, and abstraction, and he is celebrated for a highly personal visual language that combined symbolism, color theory, and playful imagination.

His works often resemble dreamlike, childlike images filled with fantastical creatures, architectural forms, hieroglyphs, and abstract patterns. He also had a profound understanding of color theory, inspired in part by Goethe’s writings and his own experimentation, and he treated color almost as a musical element — expressive, rhythmic, and emotionally charged.

The piece is framed with hand silvered frame, with deep green passepartout, and is placed on a teal background.
