This charcoal drawing, "Christ," by French symbolist artist Odilon Redon (1840-1916), depicts the face of Christ, crowned with thorns, in a shadowy and melancholic manner. Redon's works are known for their exploration of dreams and the subconscious, and this drawing exemplifies his use of dark, evocative imagery to convey a sense of profound emotion and spiritual contemplation. The emphasis on the eyes, which appear to be filled with a deep sadness, further underscores the work's themes of suffering and sacrifice.
