La Vie et l'oeuvre d'Odilon Redon (La vie et l'œuvre) (French Edition)

We are only beginning to appreciate the true dimensions of Odilon Redon. Misunderstood in his time, he strove with his intuition to see art regain some sort of plenitude. Historically, he belongs to the Impressionist generation, born in 1840, the same year as Monet and a year earlier than Renoir. And yet, he reaches far beyond. He has been linked to Symbolism, in the wake of Gustave Moreau.
