Redon spent much of 1895 making La Tentation de St. Antoine. 3me. Série his first album of lithographs in five years. He produced only one more album of lithographs, Apocalypse de St. Jean, in 1899. 'Flaubert's first magnum opus, retelling the temptations that afflicted Saint Anthony, was completed over twenty-five years before its publication in 1874. The mystical trials were compelling subjects for Redon, who made three sets of illustrations in which he tried to fathom their symbolic content. The last and largest series of lithographs on the temptations [this set] was commissioned by Vollard and issued in 1896, many decades before they were incorporated into book form after the artist's death.'
