Portrait of an Oriental (1924) – Paul Klee Expressionist Blue Face Abstract Portrait Print
About the Artwork
This striking mask-like portrait uses an intense blue ground with sharp graphic details, blending caricature, symbolism, and cultural motifs. The stylised eyes and angular features create a mysterious, almost theatrical presence. It symbolises identity filtered through imagination rather than realism, a hallmark of Klee’s portraiture. Ideal for bold contemporary interiors, statement walls, eclectic décor, and modern spaces seeking a vibrant focal artwork.
About the Artist
Paul Klee (1879–1940) was a Swiss-born German artist renowned for his innovative use of colour, abstract forms, and playful compositions. A prominent member of the Bauhaus movement, Klee's works drew from diverse influences, including Cubism, Surrealism, and Expressionism. His paintings often merged whimsical, dreamlike elements with meticulous structure. With over 10,000 works, Klee's art defied conventional categorisation, leaving a lasting impact on modern art through its emotional depth and inventive style.
