About the piece
Created around 1905 by French Symbolist master Odilon Redon, this oil painting captures a mystical and tranquil scene. Moving away from his darker 'noirs,' this later work utilizes a luminous palette of gold and soft pastels to create an atmospheric, shimmering environment for its subjects. The work beautifully illustrates Redon's ability to blend allegorical themes with a modernist, decorative sensibility.
