Odilon Redon was a French symbolist painter, printmaker, and draughtsman who was born on April 20, 1840, in Bordeaux, France. He is known for his mysterious and dreamlike works that often feature fantastical creatures and ethereal landscapes. Redon's early work was influenced by the realism of artists like Gustave Courbet, but he later became associated with the symbolist movement and is now considered one of its leading figures. His use of rich color and symbolic imagery has had a lasting impact on the art world, and he is remembered as one of the most important artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Redon passed away on July 6, 1916, in Paris, France.
