Three Houses 1922

Paul Klee's "Three Houses" (1922) is a watercolor painting that exemplifies the artist's interest in geometric abstraction and the exploration of color and form. The artwork features three houses rendered as simple geometric shapes, with a single round shape representing the moon in the upper left corner. The houses are painted in shades of green, blue, and pink, creating a sense of depth and movement. The flatness of the shapes and the limited color palette give the painting a sense of stillness and contemplation, while the geometric forms suggest a sense of order and structure. Klee's "Three Houses" is a notable example of his signature style, which often combined whimsical imagery with precise geometric compositions.
