Departure for the Witches Sabbath | Albert Joseph Penot | 1910

The painting titled "Departure for the Witches' Sabbath" by Albert Joseph Penot, circa 1910, portrays a striking and evocative scene typical of the Symbolist movement. The artwork features a nude woman riding a broomstick, a motif commonly associated with witches and folklore. The figure is suspended in mid-air against a backdrop of swirling clouds, giving the impression of a mysterious nocturnal journey. The monochromatic color scheme, along with the flowing lines of the woman's hair and the sweeping motion of the broom, adds a dreamlike and surreal quality to the painting, emphasizing themes of fantasy and the supernatural. Penot's work captures both the allure and the eerie mystique often attributed to witches in European mythology.
