More about this artwork

Titled "Poissons," this enchanting painting by Odilon Redon showcases an array of colorful fish and sea creatures, rendered with a lively sense of movement and delicate texture. Each creature is depicted with a distinct palette and style, highlighting Redon's exploration of color and form. Floating against a softly textured beige background, the aquatic subjects appear almost ethereal, drawing the viewer into a serene underwater world.Redon's use of translucent washes and bold, vivid hues lends a dream-like quality to the composition, while his varying brushstrokes suggest the dynamic, fluid environment in which these creatures dwell. Prominent in the canvas is a large blue fish, depicted with a particularly expressive eye and dynamic fin and tail movements, suggesting both grace and vitality."Poissons" resonates with Redon's typical departure from naturalism, steering towards a more symbolic and imaginative representation that invites viewers to delve into the depths of interpretation and emotion.

Odilon Redon was a French symbolist painter, printmaker, draughtsman and pastellist. Early in his career, both before and after fighting in the Franco-Prussian War, he worked almost exclusively in charcoal and lithography, works referred to as noirs. 

During the 1890s he began working in pastel and oils, which quickly became his favourite medium, abandoning his previous style of noirs completely after 1900. He also developed a keen interest in Hindu and Budhist religion and culture, which increasingly showed in his work.

He is perhaps best known today for the "dreamlike" paintings created in the first decade of the 20th century, which were heavily inspired by Japanese art and which, while continuing to take inspiration from nature, heavily flirted with abstraction. His work is considered a precursor to both Dadaism and Surrealism.
