EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Head Wearing a Phrygian Cap, on a Salver" showcases the artistic brilliance of Odilon Redon. Created in 1881 using charcoal with black chalk, this piece is housed at The Art Institute of Chicago. The portrait depicts a woman's profile wearing an intriguing Phrygian cap atop her headscarf. With delicate strokes and meticulous attention to detail, Redon captures the essence of both mystery and elegance in his subject. The woman's expression remains enigmatic yet alluring, inviting viewers to delve into their own interpretations. Symbolism plays a significant role in this artwork as well. The Phrygian cap symbolizes freedom and revolution while also representing ancient Greek mythology. Redon's use of this iconic headwear adds depth to the composition, encouraging contemplation about societal norms and personal identity.
