PAUL KLEE
1879 - 1940

Paul was a German / Swiss painter. His parents were musicians. Paul knew how to play the violin and they even let him play in the Bern symphony orchestra. He would've liked to be a writer but painting turned out to be his thing.

Paul married Lily Stumpf. The year? 1906. Lily was a pianist, which was good because she was able to bring some money home for the family by means of piano lessons.

Some ego boost for Paul Klee in 1911, however, when he was able to contribute some cartoon drawings for Voltaire's novel Candide.
