Die Hexe mit dem Kamm (Witch with a Comb) is a 1922 ink by Paul Klee, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a tall, skinny figure with a big, odd hat topped with dots. The face is blank except for two circles for eyes and a simple mouth. The figure wears a long, flowing dress with lots of lines and a belt that has a round buckle. Two arrows point down from the belt, like something falling or being weighed. The artist signed it with a small "Klee" at the bottom, and the title is *Die Hexe mit dem Kamm*—German for "Witch with a Comb." The comb is the strange hat shape on top. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how it’s made.
Paul Klee (German: ; 18 December 1879 – 29 June 1940) was a Swiss-born German artist.
