Description

A women's silk kimono in various shades of blue.

  • While artist Paul Klee (1879-1940) found his greatest influences on trips to North Africa and southern Europe, and in fellow painter Cezanne, his resulting skills as a supreme colorist, use of architectural details and his own symbolism made him a far-reaching influence on 20th-century modernism.
  • The artist of this kimono seems to have been inspired by those paintings and drawings, particularly Klee's painting Incipient Coolness from 1937.
