The inspiration to this work of art: Paul Klee travels alone to Egypt in 1928, his place of longing.
Since he didn’t speak English, I asked him how he had managed linguistically. His answer was: in Bernese German. And it was the truth, because many of the Cook hotels employed Swiss people as waiters … He had many wonderful things to say about Cairo, about the museums and the city, and also about how he got lost for hours in the labyrinth of streets. – Felix Klee, 1960
Design is fine. History is mine.
