Witch with a Comb

Paul Klee, 1922

The image consists of curved lines and simple geometric shapes forming an abstract figure. The shapes create a minimalist human-like figure with basic features such as eyes, a nose, and hands. Above the head, there are vertical lines fanning outwards. The composition may suggest a crown or decorative elements. The abstract representation resembles a person in a robe, hinting at a regal or historic character. The style blends abstract interpretation with recognizable forms, allowing the viewer to connect with familiar human characteristics.
