"Pilgrim from a Sublunar World" is a lithograph by Odilon Redon created in 1891. The artwork depicts a figure in a flowing garment, possibly a woman, riding a large, shadowy creature, perhaps a horse or a mythical beast. The composition is dominated by a dark, mysterious background punctuated by a swirling, luminescent orb in the upper right corner. The use of black and white creates a dramatic contrast, reflecting Redon's fascination with the subconscious and the mystical. This work embodies Redon's signature style known as "black and white drawings," a pivotal period in his artistic evolution and characteristically rich in symbolism and evocative of the unknown.
