“The present pastel is Redon’s beautiful rendering of the Cain and Abel story. Christian imagery rarely appeared in his early work. However, during the 1890s Redon responded to the Catholic revival that emerged in France during the previous decade and remained a powerful force in the nation’s cultural life until the First World War…Biblical imagery and myths were an added source from which the artist could draw from and explore his general interest in spirituality.”
