Paul Klee - Pomona, overripe, 1938

The period in which the painting „Pomona, overripe“ was created can also be seen as a specially fertile time: As a result of his illness with progressive scleroderma Klee was only able to execute 25 works in 1936, and yet the following year was the beginning of a phase of extraordinary creative strength until his death.In the final working years fruits were amongst the most important motifs for his pictures. Klee related these concentrations of content into his own work during these years and understood this as the „fruit“ of a long artistic maturing process. In the painting „Pomona, overripe“, this theme links the sensuous experience to its mythological source.
