Notes | "This eerie drawing may have had familial ramifications. In the 1880s Redon’s younger brother, Gaston, won the coveted Prix de Rome in architecture, which may have rekindled a kind of sibling rivalry and increased the artist’s own feelings of inadequacy. Reiterating a motif that he had used before, Redon seems to have included a solar eclipse in one of the eyes of the laurel-wreathed bust’s masklike face." | |||||||||||||||||||||||
