Redon's work was inspired by which foreign art?

  • Russian

  • African

  • Egyptian

  • Japanese

Answer

Japanese art significantly influenced Odilon Redon's work. Japanese prints, in particular, captivated Redon with their flat areas of color, bold lines, and unconventional perspectives. He admired the way Japanese artists depicted nature and incorporated symbolism into their works. Redon's fascination with Japanese art profoundly impacted his artistic style and contributed to the development of the Symbolist movement in late 19th-century art.
