Colored contour lines interlock into two guarded figures

Continuous outlines in orange, red, blue, and black interlock across the sheet, forming two stacked head-and-shoulder shapes with small circular eyes, plus a pair of legs below. A long, sweeping orange line arcs from lower left to upper right like a pair of wings enclosing the whole group. The lines cross and double back on themselves without any fill color, leaving the plain tan paper visible throughout. Signed "Klee" lower right, dated 1931.

Paul Klee (1879–1940) was one of the most inventive artists of the twentieth century. Swiss-born and trained in Munich, he joined Kandinsky and Marc in the Blaue Reiter circle, found colour on a journey to Tunisia in 1914, and taught at the Bauhaus from 1921 to 1931, where his lectures on line, tone and colour became a theory of pictorial form. His small paintings and drawings move between geometry, script, humour and dream. After the Nazi regime dismissed him in 1933 he returned to Bern. His work is held by the Zentrum Paul Klee in Bern, the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
