Such a fascinating world

Gaston Bussière was a French Symbolist painter and illustrator. He made a name for himself in the literary and art movements that flourished in France and Belgium in the late 19th century. 

Gaston Bussière, who was active in Paris studied at l'Académie des Beaux-Arts in Lyon, created works on the theme of the theatre works of Berlioz (La Damnation de Faust), William Shakespeare and Richard Wagner, and also worked as an illustrator for these popular writers who demanded his illustration at the era. His works with motifs such as Salome, Jeanne d'Arc, and nymph, Seven Veils of Oscar Wilde and Salomé, were all elegant and aesthetic. It's a fascinating world. If you stop, stop your eyes, and get a glimpse of the world where he saw, your image may be amplified.
