EDITORS COMMENTS
C'est le Diable" or "It's the Devil," created by French artist Odilon Redon in 1888, is a captivating and enigmatic lithograph on chine collé that invites the viewer into a mystical and fantastical world of darkness and intrigue. This image, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to Redon's mastery of the lithographic medium and his exploration of the concept of evil and the supernatural in art. The composition features a powerful and ominous figure of the devil, depicted as a grey, amorphous form with piercing red eyes and outstretched arms. The devil hovers above a desolate landscape, surrounded by swirling clouds and chaotic lines, creating a sense of otherworldliness and unease. The use of chine collé, a technique that involves gluing paper to the back of the lithographic plate, adds texture and depth to the print, enhancing the overall effect of the work. Redon's "C'est le Diable" is a departure from traditional Christian depictions of the devil, instead offering a more symbolic and open-ended interpretation of the figure. The title itself suggests a playful and even ironic take on the concept of evil, as if to challenge the viewer's assumptions and expectations. The print can be seen as a reflection of the artist's imagination and his exploration of the human psyche, as well as a commentary on the role of temptation and the supernatural in art and culture. This historic work of art, with its rich heritage and intriguing symbolism, continues to captivate and inspire viewers today, offering a glimpse into the fantastical world of Odilon Redon and the enduring power of the arts to provoke thought and imagination.
