Issued by Deutsche Bundespost in 1979, this 90-Pfennig stamp honors Swiss-German artist Paul Klee (1879–1940), one of the leading figures of modern art and the Bauhaus movement. The design reproduces his 1924 painting “Vogelgarten” (“Bird Garden”), a whimsical, dreamlike scene combining geometric forms with delicate plant and bird motifs in earthy tones. The minimalist layout, with fine typography, reflects Klee’s fusion of abstraction and expression. Released to mark the centenary of his birth, this issue remains a favorite among collectors of art-themed stamps for its elegant homage to Klee’s poetic visual language.
