Paul Klee; Sammlung Rosengart

 Sammlung Rosengart/Rosengart Collection Museum in Bern Switzerland

These five show:  a range of Klee subjects,  the intense creativity, the playfulness, experimentation with materials, and range of emotions, productivity.  And general mastery of  Paul Klee.  The last painting Hoping Once More was done a few months before he died (of the painful disease scleroderma).
