Odilon Redon, a prominent French symbolist painter and printmaker, created "Perseus and Andromeda," also known as "Ruggiero and Angelica," as part of his exploration into mythological and fantastical themes. This artwork, completed in the late 19th or early 20th century, exemplifies Redon's fascination with the ethereal and the dreamlike, characteristic of the Symbolist movement. Redon's work often delved into the realms of imagination, dreams, and the subconscious, and "Perseus and Andromeda" is no exception.

The painting depicts the mythological tale of Perseus, the Greek hero who rescues Andromeda from a sea monster, a narrative that has been a popular subject in art for centuries. Alternatively, the title "Ruggiero and Angelica" refers to characters from Ludovico Ariosto's epic poem "Orlando Furioso," where the knight Ruggiero saves the princess Angelica from a similar fate. Redon's choice to merge these narratives reflects his interest in blending classical mythology with literary sources, creating a rich tapestry of symbolic meaning.

In "Perseus and Andromeda," Redon employs his signature use of vibrant colors and soft, dreamlike forms. The figures of Perseus and Andromeda (or Ruggiero and Angelica) are rendered with a delicate, almost otherworldly quality, set against a fantastical backdrop that enhances the mythical atmosphere. The painting's composition and use of light evoke a sense of mystery and transcendence, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the narrative and its symbolic implications.

Redon's work is celebrated for its ability to evoke deep emotional and psychological responses, and "Perseus and Andromeda" is a testament to his skill in merging mythological storytelling with his unique artistic vision. This piece remains a significant example of Symbolist art, reflecting the broader cultural and artistic currents of the time while showcasing Redon's distinctive approach to myth and imagination.
