Inscription 1921

Paul Klee’s *Inscription* (1921) is a striking example of his signature style, combining geometric abstraction with an element of mystery. Created during the artist's early engagement with the Bauhaus, this artwork reveals Klee's fascination with simplified forms and symbolic language. Using a limited palette of browns, the piece presents a layered field of linear patterns and symbols, hinting at an inscription or a coded message, inviting the viewer to decipher its meaning. *Inscription* exemplifies Klee's exploration of the interplay between geometric shapes and symbolic imagery, which became a defining characteristic of his artistic practice.
