TYRA KLEEN. “Bellagio” oil on canvas, signed and dated 1935.

Dimensions approx 40x56 cm.

Kleen's artistry is distinguished by a mysterious and colorful style that differed from contemporary currents. She was active in cities such as Rome, Paris, Munich and Stockholm, and contributed a continental symbolist current to Swedish turn-of-the-century art. This gave a new dimension to the art scene, where the strong National Romanticism had previously dominated.
