Bloemen vallen en de kop van een python verschijnt
1896
Odilon Redon was a master of the Symbolist movement, creating dreamlike worlds that hovered between reality and nightmare. In this striking 1896 lithograph from his series 'The Temptation of Saint Anthony,' a bizarre, hybrid creature emerges from the darkness. It looks like a python's head fused with human-like hands and feet, resting near a strange, glowing object. Redon called these dark works his 'noirs,' and they perfectly capture the subconscious fears of the era, proving that sometimes the scariest monsters are the ones we imagine in the dark.
