Odilon Redon: 208 Paintings and Drawings Details
Odilon Redon was a French symbolist painter, printmaker, draftsman and master of the pastels. He describes his own work as "ambiguous and indefinable": "My drawings inspire, and are not to be defined. They place us, as does music, in the ambiguous realm of the undetermined." Redon's paintings and drawings represent an exploration of his internal feelings and awareness. He himself wanted to "place the visible at the service of the invisible"; thus, although his work seems filled with strange beings and grotesque dichotomies, his aim was to represent pictorially the ghosts of his own mind.

Reviews
This is how I learnt to not order a book that has no reviews. All "208 paintings and drawings" are very low quality black and white prints. They should have made the cover black and white too - just to make it clear there's not a single color illustration in this book. A roll of toilet paper is worth more than this.
