Le Cœur révélateur[1] (1883) is a design by Odilon Redon based on the French translation of Edgar Allan Poe's short story "Le Cœur révélateur"[2] ("The Tell-Tale Heart"), as translated by Charles Baudelaire in Nouvelles Histoires extraordinaires.
In 1883, Redon illustrated four stories by Poe ("Le coeur révélateur", "Bérénice", "La barrique d'amontillado", and "Le masque de la Mort Rouge"), from the Nouvelles histoires extraordinaires. These charcoal drawings offer a kind of wink[3] from the draughtsman to the audience. [4]
