About the piece
Created in 1906, this work by Finnish artist Magnus Enckell captures the story of Salome with a modern, theatrical twist. The composition places the viewer behind an audience, looking onto a stage where warm reds and ochres clash against a deep blue moonlit sky, creating a sense of dramatic anticipation and mystery typical of early 20th-century symbolism.
