Carlos Schwabe

This visionary symbolist mastered the late 19th century with his oniriques and mystical visions. The Musée d'art et d'histoire presents, from March 7th to August 16th, 2026, an exceptional collection of paintings and drawings that bring to life a unique fantastical universe. Far from the realist movements of his time, the artist prioritizes fluid lines and pastel colors to achieve a form of spiritual purity. His compositions depict ethereal figures navigating between dream and reality, addressing with rare sensitivity the themes of death, femininity, and transcendence. This selection of works illustrates a quest for the ideal that continues to fascinate by its visual poetry. It is a precious opportunity to grasp the influence of this visionary creator whose brush captured the invisible.
