This is a village street scene by Odilon Redon, dated 1875. It was painted in oil on paper that has been mounted on canvas, a combination that gives the surface a slightly different character from a work made directly on canvas. Redon is best known as a French Symbolist, working as a draughtsman, printmaker and painter, so it is interesting to see him here with a plain view of a street. The painting belongs to the collection of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam, and it sits among his landscape paintings.
On your wall: A quiet village scene like this suits a hallway, study or sitting room, particularly where you want a calm landscape rather than a bold statement.

Odilon Redon was a French artist who worked as a draughtsman, printmaker and painter. He belonged to the Symbolist movement, which favoured imagination and suggestion over straightforward description. Moving between drawing, printmaking and painting, he built a body of work that sits comfortably within that tradition and rewards slow, attentive looking.
