In the section 1879

"In the Section," a lithograph created by Odilon Redon in 1879, exemplifies his exploration of symbolism and the subconscious. The artwork depicts a detached head, adorned with a helmet-like structure, resting upon a pedestal against a stark black background. The figure's large, expressive eyes and the unsettling nature of the composition evoke a sense of mystery and introspection, characteristic of Redon's style. This piece exemplifies Redon's signature "black and white" works, where the artist uses a limited color palette and a focus on line to evoke a sense of drama and evoke deeper meaning.
