And All Manner of Frightful Creatures Arise 1888

"And All Manner of Frightful Creatures Arise" is a haunting lithograph created by Odilon Redon in 1888. The work is characterized by its stark contrast between light and dark, with a central, swirling orb illuminated against a shadowy backdrop. The shadowy figures scattered around the orb suggest a sense of unease and uncertainty, contributing to the overall atmosphere of mystery and the uncanny. Redon, a prominent figure in the Symbolist movement, explored themes of the subconscious and the supernatural in his artwork. This lithograph, with its unsettling imagery, exemplifies his fascination with the darker aspects of human experience.
