More Information About this Art Greeting Card and the Artist

The Love Art? card range published by Museums and Galleries in collaboration with the Art Fund comprises an exclusive collection of greeting cards of paintings from the world's greatest art galleries and museums, reproduced faithfully to the highest possible standard.

Redon was one of the leading figures of Symbolism, a movement in late 19th and early 20th century art that looked beyond the material world of the Impressionists to explore mysterious, enigmatic, even weird themes. For most of his life he worked almost exclusively in black and white - in drawings and prints - but in his fifties he suddenly discovered a love of colour, which he displayed particularly in mythological and visionary subjects and in hauntingly beautiful flower paintings such as this. It makes a beautiful art greeting card for any occasion.

This greeting card is a part of The LoveArt? range which is published by Museums & Galleries Marketing Ltd., in association with The Art Fund. The Art Fund is an independent membership charity committed to saving art for everyone to enjoy. Since 1903 Art Fund members have helped save over 850,000 works of art for museums and galleries in the UK. A 25p donation from the sale of this greeting card will be given to The Art Fund.
