La Chute de Phaëton is a 1910 oil by Odilon Redon, held at Foundation E.G. Bührle Collection.
This painting shows a dreamlike scene with horses and a chariot. The horses are brown and white, and the chariot is green and yellow. The background is a mix of colors, including yellow, orange, and blue. The painting has a lot of soft, blurry brushstrokes, which gives it a sense of movement and energy. The horses and chariot seem to be floating in mid-air, which adds to the dreamlike quality of the scene.
