"Et il tomba du ciel une grande étoile, ardente comme une flambeau" (And there fell from heaven a great star, burning as it were a lamp) is a work by French symbolist artist Odilon Redon. Created in 1890, this piece is part of Redon's noirs series, a collection of charcoal drawings that delve into the themes of the fantastic, the dreamlike, and the obscure. The title of the work is a reference to a passage from the Book of Revelation (8:10), which Redon often drew upon for his mystical and enigmatic compositions.

The artwork features a dramatic contrast between light and dark, a hallmark of Redon's charcoal drawings, where the luminosity of the falling star is set against the deep black of the surrounding space. This juxtaposition not only emphasizes the intensity of the star but also contributes to the overall otherworldly atmosphere that is characteristic of Redon's oeuvre.

Redon's interest in the intersection of the visible and the invisible, the material and the spiritual, is evident in this work. The falling star, a symbol of change, destruction, or enlightenment, invites various interpretations, reflecting Redon's fascination with the personal and collective unconscious. As with much of his work, "Et il tomba du ciel une grande étoile, ardente comme une flambeau" transcends the literal to explore the psychological and metaphysical realms.

This piece is representative of Redon's contribution to the Symbolist movement, which sought to express the ineffable aspects of human experience through evocative imagery and a departure from the naturalistic representation. Redon's unique blend of the macabre and the sublime has positioned him as a pivotal figure in the transition from 19th-century Romanticism to the early modernist movements of the 20th century.
