Chapter 7
Since the early days of his career, Fantin pursued a line inspired by imagination at the same time as he was producing realistic still lifes and portraits. This tendency resurfaced with renewed force in his later years, converging with the symbolist aesthetics of the fin de siècle. Musical allegories and fantasies dedicated to Schumann, Brahms, Berlioz, and above all to Wagner’s operas, occupy a place of prominence in this area.
