The Drawings of Heinrich Kley by Heinrich Kley
Irreverent, bizarre, whimsical, and mocking, these 200 pen-and-ink sketches date from the early 20th century. They blend savage humor with brilliant draughtsmanship in depictions of humans, animals, and curious combinations of the two.
Heinrich Kley (1863-1945) abandoned painting to focus on his pen-and-ink drawings. Steeped in sarcastic wit, his images appeared in the German magazines Jugend and Simplizzimus before debuting in the United States, where they inspired the Disney artists who created the film Fantasia.
