Odilon Redon (born Bertrand Redon, 20 April 1840 – 6 July 1916) was a French symbolist painter, printmaker, draughtsman and pastellist.
He is perhaps best known today for the “dreamlike” paintings created in the first decade of the 20th century, which were heavily inspired by Japanese art and which, while continuing to take inspiration from nature, heavily flirted with abstraction. His work is considered a precursor to both Dadaism and Surrealism.
