"The Raven" (French: "Le Corbeau") is an 1882 lithograph by the French Symbolist artist Odilon Redon. This work is part of a series of lithographs that Redon created to illustrate a publication of Edgar Allan Poe's poem "The Raven," translated into French by Stéphane Mallarmé. Redon's interpretation of Poe's work is a quintessential example of Symbolist art, which sought to express the mystical and emotional aspects of human experience, often delving into the realm of dreams and the unconscious.

In "The Raven," Redon presents a haunting image that captures the eerie and melancholic atmosphere of Poe's poem. The lithograph features the eponymous raven, a central symbol of the poem, which represents death, loss, and unending sorrow. Redon's use of dark, muted tones and the ethereal quality of the raven's form contribute to the overall somber and mysterious mood of the piece. The raven appears to merge with the shadowy background, emphasizing the theme of the otherworldly and the ineffable that pervades Poe's verse.

Redon's artistic style is characterized by a unique blend of realism and fantasy, often featuring strange, dream-like imagery. His works frequently explore themes of nature, the macabre, the spiritual, and the subconscious. "The Raven" is a prime example of Redon's ability to visualize literary themes and to evoke the intangible aspects of human psyche through visual art.

This lithograph is part of Redon's "Poe portfolio," which includes several other illustrations that accompany Mallarmé's translation. The portfolio is considered a significant contribution to the Symbolist movement and demonstrates the synergy between literature and visual art during the late 19th century. Redon's "The Raven" is not only a testament to his own artistic vision but also a homage to Poe's enduring influence on the Symbolist aesthetic.
