PAIL KLEE- RITRATTO DI Alexander Eliasberg (1878–1924)
UN’ALTRA FOTO DELL’OPERA
Completed in 1922, Senecio is a manifestation of Paul’s sense of humor and African culture. The simple colors and shapes, Paul makes use of various shades of orange, red, and yellow to reveal portrait of an old man. Artistic use of shapes gives the false impression that one eye browse is raised. His left eye brow is represented by a triangle while the other one is made of a simple curved line. The portrait is also called Head of a Man Going Senile and intentionally mimics children’s artwork by using ambiguous shapes and forms with minimal facial details.

Bella, rigorosa, piacevole a vedersi questa testa di uomo che sta invecchiando. La vecchiaia viene geometrizzata e in qualche modo esorcizzata.
