Vase of Flowers (Pink Background) (1906) by Odilon Redon. Original from The MET museum.
Redon began drawing at an early age and received a drawing award at school when he was ten. When he was fifteen, he began taking drawing lessons. At his father's urging, he changed it to architecture, but failed the entrance exams in Paris.
