該隱與亞伯
1886
In this intense scene, Odilon Redon depicts the biblical moment of the very first murder with raw, primal energy. Cain looms over his brother Abel, club raised high, while heavy cross-hatching creates a suffocating shadow beneath the struggling figures. As a leader of the Symbolist movement, Redon wasn't interested in perfect realism; he wanted to express the dark, psychological weight of the act rather than just the physical violence. It’s a haunting look at sibling rivalry taken to the ultimate extreme, rendered in stark black and white.
