●内容简介——

作为象征主义运动中具表现力的艺术家之一，欧狄龙(1840-1916)过着平静的生活。在他职业生涯的前半段，这位法国画家和平面艺术家以他自己惊人的复杂和奇妙的内心世界创作了令人难忘的作品，揭示了一种超越日常视觉的存在。他把普通的主题和模型变成了奇怪、怪异的图像，并表现出对蜘蛛和蛇、骷髅和头骨、地精和怪物的偏爱——所有这些都以一种独特的、可控的、微妙的现实主义风格呈现。

雷东的流行主要是在年轻的进步艺术家中兴起的，他们认为他的作品是Mallarmé的文学象征主义的视觉对应。现代爱好者认为雷东将梦境的潜意识世界转化为视觉现实是超现实主义的先驱。这本价格适中的书提供了这位有影响力的艺术家丰富的平面作品汇编，包括209幅插图——72幅平版画，加上37幅蚀刻和版画——描绘了令人难忘的奇幻和神秘场景。

One of the most expressive artists of the Symbolism movement, Odilon (1840–1916) led a quiet life. Withdrawn in manner, conventional in dress, and virtually unknown for the first half of his career, the French painter and graphic artist drew upon his own startlingly complex and fantastic inner world to create haunting works that reveal an existence beyond that of everyday vision. He transformed common subjects and models into strange, eerie images and exhibited a predilection for spiders and serpents, skeletons and skulls, gnomes and monsters — all rendered in a distinctive style of controlled, delicate realism.

Redon's popularity arose chiefly among young progressive artists, who considered his works as visual correspondence to the literary symbolism of Mallarmé. Modern devotees regard Redon's translation of the subconscious world of dreams into visual reality as a precursor to Surrealism. This modestly priced volume offers a rich compilation of the influential artist's graphic works, with 209 illustrations — 72 lithographs, plus 37 etchings and engravings — depicting unforgettable scenes of fantasy and mystery.
