"Portrait of Madame Arthur Fontaine" is a work of art created in 1901 by the French symbolist artist, Odilon Redon. The painting is a testament to Redon's prowess in pastels, showcasing his masterful ability to capture the nuanced expressions and complex emotions of his subjects, translated visually via a fusion of naturalistic portraiture with elements of the abstract.

The artwork prominently features Madame Arthur Fontaine, the wife of a prosperous Parisian art collector and patron, who was known to commission works from leading artists of that era. Redon masterfully captures her elegance and refined nature, providing insights into Parisian high society of the Fin de siècle.

While the portrait largely adheres to a realistic colour scheme, Redon's Symbolist roots are manifest in his treatment of the portrait's background- completely abstract and composed of a myriad of pastel hues. This device seemingly isolates Madame Fontaine from any physical setting, thus rendering her in an almost dream-like state, characteristic of Redon's commitment to embodying the fantastical in his works.

"Portrait of Madame Arthur Fontaine" stands as one of Redon's notable pastel works, discernibly bridging the naturalistic human portraiture and the artist's love for abstract symbolism. This piece of art provides an intimate look into the life of a member of the French bourgeoisie as well as an exploration of creative techniques used in the broader Symbolist movement.
