Orpheus, Odilon Redon

My education on Greek mythology is scant but there's an interesting page on Wikipedia about Orpheus. He was a musician so maybe a lute is indicated here?

I really enjoy Odilon Redon's work so much. There's something about color and texture and complexity that's amazing but it's not just that, there is always a relation to a figure or a scene which brings it into an experiential place for me. I am resting with my eyes closed, dead or dreaming, with whatever all that color and texture and contrast represents.

I wanted to note here that almost all of my art education has been on the internet and following blogs of other art lovers. I am deeply indebted to them for enriching my life, I want to keep that alive on the internet, this blog is about that. Thank you to all of you out there ❤️

the head of a person with their eyes closed is pictured in a resting pose, as though on a pillow, face up, among a complex blend of colors, maybe a mountain, maybe some flowers, maybe the sky, maybe a lute near the head, nothing is representative enough to clearly identify other than the head, and this seems to be the artist's intention
