Odilon Redon The Chariot of Apollo Print

The Luminous Power of Myth 🖼️

Odilon Redon (1840–1916) spent decades perfecting what he called his "noirs"—mysterious charcoal and lithograph works that explored the darker recesses of imagination. But between 1905 and 1916, something remarkable happened: the French Symbolist master burst into brilliant colour, creating some of the most luminous wall art in art history. His repeated returns to Apollo's sun-chariot during this period weren't merely artistic exercises—they were spiritual declarations.

The mythic chariot, with its soaring horses and radiant figure, became Redon's visual metaphor for artistic transcendence. Whether depicting Apollo himself or the tragic Phaethon (whose reckless ride nearly destroyed the world), these works pulse with cosmic energy and creative fire 🔥. Museums from the Musée d'Orsay to MoMA recognise these paintings as masterpieces of late Symbolist art, each version exploring different facets of light, movement, and divine inspiration.
