This engraving, titled "Female Head" by the renowned artist Odilon Redon, transports us to a world of mystery and symbolism. The print showcases a back view of a woman's head, her gaze turned suspiciously over her shoulder. With a long neck stretching gracefully upwards, she exudes an air of hostility that is both intriguing and unsettling. Redon's mastery in capturing emotions through his art is evident in this piece. The woman's expression hints at hidden secrets or perhaps even a sense of danger lurking behind her enigmatic facade. As we delve into the depths of this artwork, we are drawn into the complexities of human nature and the power it holds to evoke various emotions within us. Created during the late 19th or early 20th century, this work exemplifies Redon's unique style as a symbolist artist.
