Odilon Redon's 1908 *White Pegasus* depicts a white, winged horse standing atop a rocky outcrop, a fantastical creature bathed in the ethereal glow of a soft, blue and lavender sky. Redon was a French Symbolist artist known for his evocative, dreamlike depictions of mythical creatures, and this work exemplifies his characteristic style. *White Pegasus* captures the essence of Redon's exploration of the subconscious, blending realism and symbolism to create a haunting and mystical vision.
