Untitled (Fantastic Subject) c. 1930s

"Untitled (Fantastic Subject)" is a drawing on paper by German Expressionist artist Walther Klemm, dating back to the 1930s. The artwork depicts a dynamic scene of a figure being thrown into the air, seemingly entangled in the branches of a tree, as a crowd looks on in the distance. This expressionistic piece captures a sense of unease and uncertainty through bold lines, dramatic composition, and a striking use of black and white. Klemm's artwork, particularly from this period, is often characterized by its exploration of psychological states and a fascination with the human figure in heightened situations. This drawing serves as a powerful example of Klemm's distinctive style and his ability to convey complex emotions through the medium of drawing.
