Odilon Redon Melancholy 1876 Hooded Figure Sun Symbolist Poster
Odilon Redon’s Melancholy (1876) — a hooded figure gazes into a radiant sun from dark cliffs, pure Symbolist dreamscape.
Description
Redon's haunting 1876 vision shows a solitary cloaked figure seated on black rocks, staring into a huge pale sun that radiates golden light through the darkness. The contrast of shadow and radiance captures the Symbolist mood perfectly. An evocative, museum-worthy print for studies, libraries, and lovers of 19th-century art.
