Bavarian Angel 1970

"Bavarian Angel," created in 1970 by artist Abdul Mati Klarwein, depicts a woman with wings, her body partially transformed into a butterfly, and a floating, disembodied mouth above her head. This surrealist image, painted with meticulous detail, combines elements of human anatomy and insect morphology, exploring themes of transformation and the connection between the spiritual and physical. The work's bold colors and highly stylized figures contribute to its striking and unforgettable aesthetic.
