About the piece
Painted circa 1904 by French Symbolist master Odilon Redon, this luminous work depicts the Buddha in a state of tranquil meditation. Set against a hazy, atmospheric background dominated by the towering trunk of a tree and a tapestry of vibrant, floating blossoms, the piece reflects Redon's signature move towards decorative, spiritual themes during his late period.
