Paul Flora “Landschaft mit zwei Raben” (Landscape with two rabens) 2003

Paul Flora was a political cartoonist for international newspapers for many years, including the renowned weekly Die Zeit. Throughout his long career, he gained widespread recognition for his sharp wit, characteristic line style, and his ability to portray political and social issues in an ironically humorous yet endearing manner.
A recurring motif in Flora’s work was the raven, which he depicted in his own distinctive and original style—often as independent protagonists or as humorous companions in his cartoons. Capturing their characteristic traits—such as curiosity, intelligence, and a mysterious aura—Flora brought these birds to life with pen and ink, imbuing them with almost human qualities.
