Vision 1883

Odilon Redon's 1883 charcoal drawing "Vision" is a haunting and symbolic work that exemplifies his fascination with the subconscious and the realm of dreams. The single, oversized eye, rendered in shades of black and grey against a textured, golden background, evokes a sense of both awe and unease. Redon, a key figure in the Symbolist movement, often utilized dreamlike imagery to explore themes of mystery, spirituality, and the hidden depths of the human psyche. "Vision" is a compelling testament to Redon's unique artistic voice and his ability to translate the ethereal into tangible form.
