Editorial Reviews

The work of French Symbolist painter Odilon Redon has long been seen as a direct link between the 19th century and the development of modern art. Now Douglas W. Druick, Searle curator of European paintings at The Art Institute of Chicago, has gathered more than 500 color and black-and-white reproductions of the artist's well-known and more obscure works.

Dream anaylsis, 2000-05-18
by Erin Branham (Little Rock, AR USA)
An excellent, detailed overview of Redon's career and artistic output, this book tells you everything you ever wanted to know about the artist's life and times. The only disappointment I felt was the lack of real insight into his work. Fabulous reproductions of the artist's incredible works tantalize as you search for interpretation in the text. Historical fact is all you get however. Somehow this seemed ironic in a book about a "Prince of Dreams". An absolute must have for any lover of Redon's art - the most complete published source - and the reproductions are truly phenomenal!
