"Partout des prunelles flamboient" is a lithograph by Odilon Redon, a prominent figure in the Symbolist movement, created in the 19th century. The artwork, which is currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, features a single, large eye, rendered with meticulous detail, floating against a stark, hazy background. The eye, seemingly detached from any anatomical context, evokes a sense of mystery and the subconscious. This unsettling yet captivating imagery is characteristic of Redon's exploration of dreams, imagination, and the human condition, making it a captivating example of his signature style.
