EDITORS COMMENTS
Le Polype Difforme Flottait Sur Les Rivages" (The Deformed Polyp Floated on the Shores) is an enigmatic and captivating lithograph created by the French artist Odilon Redon in 1883. This monochromatic masterpiece, now held in the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., invites viewers to explore the depths of their imagination and delve into the realms of mythology and fantasy. Redon's depiction of the polyp, a mythical creature with a single eye and a deformed, amorphous body, is reminiscent of the Cyclops Polyphemus from Greek mythology. However, Redon's interpretation is far from the traditional portrayal of this one-eyed giant. Instead, the polyp in this lithograph appears as a smiling and hideous creature, seemingly content as it floats on the shores. The use of black and white in this lithograph adds to the mystical and otherworldly atmosphere, with the grey tones creating a sense of depth and texture. The polyp's form is both fluid and solid, defying easy classification, and its single eye gazes out at the viewer with a curious and enigmatic expression. This work is a testament to Redon's skill as an artist and his ability to bring the fantastical to life through his drawings. It invites us to consider the power of the imagination and the enduring allure of mythology and legend. Whether viewed as a work of art or as an illustration for a poem or a story, "Le Polype Difforme Flottait Sur Les Rivages" continues to captivate and inspire viewers over a century after it was created. This lithograph is a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of France and the artistic innovations of the 19th century.
