Paul Citroen's oeuvre consists of paintings, graphics, art books and photography. His best-known work is 'Metropolis' (1923), a photomontage of a large city.

The artist grew up in Berlin, where he came into contact with art and literature at an early age. Paul Citroen studied at the Kunsthochschule in Berlin. As co-founder of an art bookstore in Berlin, he came into contact with many innovative artists, including members of the DaDa movement. Under the influence of this environment, Paul Citroen started drawing again and was admitted to the famous Bauhaus training in Weimar, where he was taught by greats from art history such as Paul Klee and Kandinsky.
In 1927, Paul Citroen settled in the Netherlands, in Amsterdam, where he initially mainly focused on photography. In 1933 he co-founded the ''Nieuwe Kunstschool'', which had to close in 1937. After this, Paul Citroen became a teacher at the Hague Art Academy until 1960 (with the exception of the war years).
As a teacher at the Hague Art Academy, he is one of the driving forces behind the movement that is now called the ''New Hague School''. Paul Citroen was best known for the many portraits he made.
Paul Citroen was also a great collector of art. Part of his collection can now be found in the Hannema-de Stuers Fundatie collection, in Heino.
The work of Paul Citroen himself is in many museum, corporate and private collections, including the National Collection. Museum de Fundatie has the largest collection of works by Paul Citroen.
In 1950 he won the Jacob Maris Prize and in 1953 the Hartog Prize.
