Park is a 1920 ink by Paul Klee, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a simple scene with bright, flat colors. A person sits alone on a bench, facing away, under a row of tall trees. The trees are painted in thick green and yellow patches, with a red building peeking through on the right. The artist used bold blocks of color instead of smooth shading. The bench and trees look almost like cut-out shapes, not quite real. Look up lithography to see how this printmaking technique works.
