The Eye, Like a Strange Balloon, Mounts Toward Infinity - Odilon Redon Art Print

$25USD
New Arrival
About the Wall Art

Fine Art Prints

Wall Art Info

Forget cheap reproductions and printable posters. Only the best will do.

Velvety matte fine art paper (warm white, archival-grade, 200gsm) with bold, vibrant, non-toxic pigment inks. High-definition print lab techniques give you sharper details, deeper saturation and true-to-life tones. While the matte surface keeps glare down and archival-grade materials mean the colors you fall for stay vivid for decades.

Framed Fine Art Prints

Wall Art Info

Your print arrives framed and ready to hang, so it goes straight from the box to your wall.

Chevron cut wooden frames make a timeless statement in three distinctive colors: black, white and natural. Each frame is made of sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine. And your artwork is protected behind ultra-clear perspex glaze that’s lighter than glass and shatter-resistant.

Float Framed Canvas Prints

Wall Art Info

Luscious artist-grade cotton canvas, hand-stretched and finely textured, gives every detail depth and precision, catching light and color with striking clarity. While a precisely measured floating frame leaves a slim gap around the canvas, so it seems to hover with a sleek, gallery-worthy effect. Finished with your choice of frame color — black, white or natural — made from sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine.

Giclée Printing

Wall Art Info

Forget 4 color CMYK. Giclée layers up to 12 — alive with deeper shadows, richer highlights and multidimensional contrasts. Pro-lab printing process helps art stay bold & breathtaking for up to 100 years. And the neo-pigment, water-based inks are 100% non-hazardous and toxin-free.
About the Artwork

Stand in the reeds beneath Redon's strange balloon and the Symbolist lithograph tilts overhead. A giant eye hangs in the haze above a velvet-black sea. The eye is the aircraft. Graphite-fine bristles halo its rim, and the pupil has turned its back on the world to study the clouds.

Greasy lithographic crayon scuffs the weather into ash gray fog, a transfer-paper trick learned from Fantin-Latour. Chalk-pale marsh grass needles the lampblack shore. French Symbolism gains altitude here, four decades ahead of Surrealism.

This artwork is taken from À Edgar Poe, Redon's 1882 portfolio of six monochromatic lithographs created as a tribute to American writer Edgar Allan Poe. And at the time, Paris already knew hot air balloons well. Siege mail had floated over Prussian guns in 1870, and Henri Giffard's captive balloon carried crowds above the Tuileries during the 1878 Exposition Universelle.

Redon drew this charcoal Eye-Balloon a few years later and gave the gondola one rider: a severed head on a pewter dish. Poe once fooled New York readers with a newspaper balloon hoax. Redon answers him with a flight no ticket could buy.
Origin Story

Odilon Redon (1840–1916) was a visionary French artist whose haunting and luminous works bridged Symbolism and Post-Impressionism, laying foundations for Surrealism.

Born in Bordeaux, Redon began his career crafting enigmatic charcoal drawings and lithographs, termed his noirs, which captured dreamlike, symbolic worlds.

Influenced by Eastern philosophy, Japanese aesthetics, and literary symbolism, Redon later embraced radiant pastels and oils, producing vibrant, mystical images that resonated with imagination and inner contemplation.

From his introspective portraits and ethereal floral arrangements to mythological visions, Redon transformed art into poetic meditations, ensuring his enduring legacy as one of modern art’s most evocative masters.
