Butterflies 1913

Odilon Redon's "Butterflies" from 1913 depicts a delicate dance of colorful butterflies and flowers against a warm, pale background. Known for his exploration of symbolism and dreamlike imagery, Redon creates a sense of ethereal beauty and tranquility, capturing the fleeting moments of nature. The work reflects the artist's interest in capturing the essence of the natural world, using soft, pastel-like colors and flowing lines to evoke a sense of movement and lightness. The painting's soft focus and blurred edges contribute to its dreamlike quality, inviting viewers to lose themselves in its whimsical beauty.
