Description
Odilon Redon A Comprehensive Collection of the Artist's Artwork throughout his Lifetime (Over 550 Works of Art).
French painter and graphic artist, Odilion Redon was born into prosperity in 1840 in Bordeaux, Aquitaine, France. He is known best for his prints, drawings, and paintings. Bertrand-Jean Redon, affectionately called Odilon by his mother and virtually everyone else, showed an early zeal and talent for drawing as a child. In fact, at the tender age of ten, he was awarded a drawing prize at school and subsequently embarked upon the formal study of drawing at fifteen. However, his father insisted he study architecture instead, but he being that he was unable to pass his entrance exam to gain admission to École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, his father's dreams were never realized in Odilon. However, Odilon's little brother, Gaston Redon, did become a notable architect.
