"Paraphrase on the Discovery of a Glove" is a notable series of etchings created by the German symbolist artist Max Klinger, first published in 1881. This work is a prime example of Klinger's fascination with the interplay between reality and fantasy, as well as his exploration of human emotions and psychological states through symbolic imagery. The series consists of ten etchings that narrate a surreal and dreamlike story centered around the discovery of a woman's glove.

The narrative begins with the protagonist, presumably Klinger himself, finding a glove at an ice-skating rink. This seemingly mundane event spirals into a sequence of bizarre and fantastical episodes, each etching delving deeper into the protagonist's psyche. The glove becomes a powerful symbol of desire, obsession, and the unattainable, guiding the viewer through a labyrinth of subconscious fears and yearnings.

Klinger's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to blend realistic and fantastical elements are evident throughout the series. The etchings are characterized by their intricate line work and dramatic contrasts of light and shadow, which enhance the surreal atmosphere of the narrative. Each plate is imbued with a sense of mystery and ambiguity, inviting multiple interpretations and engaging the viewer's imagination.

"Paraphrase on the Discovery of a Glove" reflects the broader themes of the Symbolist movement, which sought to express the ineffable and explore the depths of the human soul. Klinger's work, with its rich symbolism and emotional depth, has been influential in the development of modern art, resonating with artists and audiences alike. The series remains a testament to Klinger's innovative approach to printmaking and his ability to convey complex psychological narratives through visual art.
