EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing artwork "Pandora, 1910-2" by Odilon Redon. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures an impressive 143.5rx62.9 cm and is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, USA. Redon's interpretation of Pandora, a figure from Greek mythology, is truly enchanting. According to the myth, Pandora was created by Vulcan out of clay and sent to Earth by Jupiter as a graceful nude surrounded by an abundance of flowers. In her delicate hands rests the infamous box that holds all the evils destined to afflict mankind. The painting beautifully captures both innocence and symbolism simultaneously. The lush botanical backdrop symbolizes purity and beauty while juxtaposed against Pandora's secret burden - the box containing unimaginable evil. Redon's post-impressionist style adds depth and emotion to this classical mythological scene. His use of color and brushstrokes creates a dreamlike atmosphere that draws viewers into his artistic vision. As we gaze upon this stunning piece, we are reminded of the eternal struggle between good and evil present in our world. "Pandora, 1910-2" invites us to contemplate the consequences of curiosity while marveling at Redon's skillful portrayal of innocence amidst impending doom.
