Who Shall Deliver Me? 1891

"Who Shall Deliver Me?" is a haunting portrait painted by Belgian Symbolist artist Fernand Khnopff in 1891. The painting depicts a woman with pale skin, her white eyes staring blankly forward, and her red hair adorned with flowers. The background features a blurry courtyard, adding to the sense of isolation and mystery. Khnopff's signature style is evident in the use of muted colors and elongated figures, creating a sense of otherworldliness. This piece is a poignant reflection on the anxieties of modern life, evoking themes of alienation, isolation, and the search for meaning.
