    Figure under a blossoming tree (1904 – 1905)

    Odilon Redon (French, 1840–1916)

    A lone figure stands beneath a tree heavy with blossoms, its branches dissolving into soft smudges of color. The air hums with quiet mystery—neither day nor night, dream nor reality. Petals seem to hover between falling and floating upward, caught in some unseen current.

    On the Stile (1878)

    Winslow Homer (American, 1836–1910)

    A girl pauses on the wooden stile, her dress catching the breeze. The fields stretch beyond her, golden and endless. For a moment, she’s neither here nor there—just balanced between two worlds, one foot still lingering in childhood.
