Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The subtle and vibrant colours and fantastic dream images of the works of Paul Klee make them among the most famous and recognizable of modern art. Here, an essential collection of 130 pieces, held by Klee's closest friend and personal adviser, is released to the public for the first time. This elegantly designed volume offers the only reproduction of these important but little-known works.

Published in conjunction with an exhibition held at the Kunstmuseum Bern, Feb. 4-Apr. 16, 2000; Hamburger Kunsthalle, May 5-July 23, 2000; and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Eddinburgh, Aug. 12-Oct. 22, 2000.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 283-284) and index.
