About the piece

Painted in 1915, 'Stickerei' (Embroidery) demonstrates Paul Klee's masterful ability to blend structural geometry with organic fluidity. This watercolor piece explores the visual language of textiles, translating tactile needlework into a sophisticated modernist composition of layered marks and rhythmic tiles.
