Album cover for Miles Davis, Live-Evil

Abdul Mati Klarwein was a German painter and illustrator born in 1932 whose visionary work bridged commercial art and fine art practice. Working primarily in oil and acrylic, his compositions combined surrealist elements with precise figurative rendering, often depicting fantastical landscapes and mythological subjects. Active from the postwar period through the early 2000s, Klarwein's technique and imaginative scope influenced both album cover design and gallery-based painting.
