Genuine antique 1929 heliogravure print after an artwork by eminent French artist Odilon Redon. Subtle sepia-toned piece entitled “Sad Descent", from Redon's 1879 portfolio of ten lithographs titled In the Dream (Dans le rêve). The original image was one of Redon's famous "Noirs", a series of charcoal drawings and lithographs that explore themes of fantasy, the subconscious, and the bizarre. Framed with vintage gilded solid wood and custom double mount behind glass.

"Odilon Redon was a French Symbolist draftsman, printmaker, and painter. Early in his career, both before and after fighting in the Franco-Prussian War, Redon worked almost exclusively in charcoal and lithography, works known as his noirs."
