This modern Symbolist masterpiece was created by Odilon Redon in about 1909. It depicts the Greek God of the Sun, Phoebus Apollo, as he personifies the sun in its daily chariot ride across the heavens. Redon did not achieve any degree of fame until 1884 when he was forty-four years old. He began to favor pastels and oils in the 1890’s until his death in 1916.
