The Buddha

Odilon Redon, 1895

The image features an abstract composition with curved and linear forms. In the center, there is a circular shape surrounded by a swirling background. A figure appears from the left, draped in a cloak-like shape. Above, a circular halo-like form adds to the abstraction. The use of light and dark shades creates depth.
