Created in 1883 as part of Odilon Redon's seminal lithographic series, 'Il y eut peut-être une vision première essayée dans la fleur' stands as a defining masterpiece of the Symbolist movement. Redon's visionary work explores the intersection of botany, evolutionary theory, and subconscious fantasy, depicting a singular human eye emerging from the center of a primordial flower. This haunting, dreamlike lithograph reflects the late 19th-century fascination with the unseen worlds of the mind and natural science. To preserve the integrity of Redon's delicate tonal gradations and deep charcoal blacks, each format—including our premium canvas—is finished with a refined, gallery-ready presentation. This consistent clean white gallery border floats the artwork in its original, uncropped proportions, ensuring an elegant, museum-grade display that honors the artist's original vision.
About Your Border
Every format — Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Canvas and Framed Canvas — is supplied with a clean white gallery border framing the image on all four sides. The border is sized in proportion to the piece — approximately 10% of the shortest edge on each side (for example, about 3 cm of white border on a 30 cm-wide piece) — so the artwork keeps its standard proportions with no cropping and is ready to hang or frame straight away. If you prefer, you can also place your own mount/mat on top.
Would you like a different border width, a borderless full-bleed version, or any other adjustment? Just let us know within 24 hours of ordering and we'll tailor it for you at no extra cost.
