Baronne de Domecy c. 1900

"Baronne de Domecy" is a pastel portrait by French Symbolist artist Odilon Redon, created around 1900. The work features the titular Baronne, whose face is rendered in soft, ethereal tones, set against a dreamy, fantastical background of swirling pastel colors. The background features delicate, abstract flowers, typical of Redon's later style, which evoked a sense of the mystical and the subconscious. Redon was known for his unique blend of realism and symbolism, blurring the lines between the tangible and the imagined in his artworks.
