Death and Fire, known in German as Tod und Feuer, is an expressionist painting by Paul Klee, from 1940.

It is on display at Zentrum Paul Klee, in Bern.

In 1935 Klee started to suffer from scleroderma, which manifested itself with fatigue, skin rashes, difficulty in swallowing, shortness of breath and pain in the joints of his hands.

[3] His painting during this period tended to be simpler and representative of the suffering he was going through.

[2] "Tod", the German word for death, is a common motif throughout this painting.
