The lithograph Christ by Odilon Redon is a nineteenth-century piece depicting the deity staring forlornly off into the distance, bloodied and covered in a crown of thorns. This particular piece is the most notable of several lithographs made by Redon depicting Christ. The work depicts Jesus during his crucifixion, either just before or just after he was nailed to the cross. Both begun and finished in 1887, ''Christ'' is now housed in the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco. 〔David Rumsey, "Odilon Redon" (Last modified 2007), accessed April 25, 2014. http://www.davidrumsey.com/amica/amico717088-48676.html〕 == Odilon Redon Before "Christ"== Born in Bordeaux, France to a prominent family, Redon had ill health as a child, suffering from a form of epilepsy, and was forced to spend long periods of time recovering away from his home and family. This in turn created a detachment between him and them, as he often felt lonely and abandoned, a trauma he would carry with him his entire life.〔Gamboni, ''The Brush and the Pen'', 17-19〕 During his adult life, not only did Redon’s first born son, Jean, die soon after birth, but the artist struggled to obtain fame with his primary collection of charcoal drawings, called ''Noirs''.〔Richard Hobbes. ''Odilon Redon'', 1〕 Redon’s early works, as suggested by their name, were haunted, often dark in mood and color, containing Surrealist and Dadaist elements. Although he was mostly inspired by the bleakness of his own psyche, Redon was also influenced by writers such as Charles Baudelaire and Edgar Allan Poe, notable for their poems and novels depicting the hardships of human life.〔Black, ''I am the first Consciousness of Chaos: The Black Album'', 4〕 However, despite his failure to gain immediate public recognition, Redon received acclaim from Parisian critics, giving him the motivation he needed to continue with his art. Working almost exclusively in charcoal and lithograph, Redon finally became well known when his artworks were featured in a famous 1884 novel titled À rebours, or ''Against Nature''.〔"Odilon Redon: Biography," (Last modified 2014), accessed March 24, 2014. http://www.odilon-redon.org/biography.html.〕 Redon eventually saw improvement in both his professional and personal life, establishing himself as a prominent artist and bearing another son with his wife.〔Hauptman, ''Beyond The Visible: The Art of Odilon Redon'', 17〕
