For Klee the tight-rope walker symbolised an important aspect in his theory of art: the idea of equilibrium. In 1921, he stated in a lecture: The tight-rope walker with his pole [is a] symbol of the balance of forces. He holds the forces of gravity in the balance (weight and counterweight). He is a pair of scales. (J. Spiller, Paul Klee: The Thinking Eye, London, 1961)
