Roger and Angelica | Odilon Redon | 1910

"Roger and Angelica" by Odilon Redon, created around 1910, is a vibrant work that encapsulates the fantastical elements of the narrative it depicts. The piece is inspired by the poem "Orlando Furioso" by Ludovico Ariosto, where the knight Roger saves the maiden Angelica from a sea monster. Redon's interpretation is a dreamlike vision that captures the dramatic moment of rescue. The painting is characterized by its vivid colors and swirling composition, creating a sense of movement and emotional intensity. Redon’s use of color and form abstracts the figures and the scene, giving the impression of a fleeting, mystical encounter. The dramatic contrast between the dark and light elements, as well as the use of saturated blues, suggests both the danger present and the miraculous nature of the event. This artwork is a quintessential example of Redon's symbolist approach, where the subject matter is conveyed through a powerful and personal visual language.
