EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Angel Applicant 1939" we are transported into the imaginative world of renowned artist Paul Klee. The artwork, created with gouache, ink, and graphite on paper mounted on cardboard, measures 25 3/4 by 17 1/2 inches (65.4 by 44.5 cm). Klee's German-Swiss background is evident in his unique style that seamlessly blends elements of both cultures. In this particular piece, he presents us with an angel applicant who seems to be doubtful about their chances of reaching heaven. The figure bears a striking resemblance to a bulldog offspring wearing a Halloween mask. Throughout his career, Klee composed twenty-nine works featuring angels; however, in earlier years he only sporadically depicted them. This piece stands out due to its whimsical and slightly comical portrayal of an angelic being. The intricate details and skillful use of color make this artwork truly mesmerizing. As we gaze at it, we can't help but wonder about the story behind this peculiar angel applicant and what trials they may face on their journey towards heavenly realms. This print from the Liszt Collection allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Klee's mastery from the comfort of their own space. Whether displayed as part of a larger collection or as a standalone piece, "Angel Applicant 1939" is sure to spark conversations and ignite imaginations with its intriguing subject matter and exceptional artistic execution.
