In 1903, Redon was awarded the [[Legion of Honour]].<ref>Redon and Werner (1969), p. ix.</ref> His popularity increased when a catalogue of etchings and lithographs was published by [[André Mellerio]] in 1913; that same year, he was given the largest single representation at the groundbreaking US [[International Exhibition of Modern Art]] (aka [[Armory Show]]), in New York City, Chicago and Boston.<ref name="Scott 2021">{{cite web | last=Scott | first=Chadd | title=Strange—And Wonderful—Odilon Redon At Cleveland Museum Of Art | website=Forbes | date=20 October 2021 | url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/chaddscott/2021/10/20/strange-and-wonderful-odilon-redon-at-cleveland-museum-of-art/ | access-date=8 February 2023}}</ref>

His choice of color and subject matter in the second part of his career led to Redon being considered a precursor to [[Dadaism]] and [[Surrealism]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Hopkins|first=David|url=https://archive.org/details/dadasurrealismve0000hopk|url-access=registration|title=Dada and Surrealism: A Very Short Introduction|publisher=Oxford University Press|year=2004|isbn=978-0-19-157769-7|location=Oxford and New York|pages=[https://archive.org/details/dadasurrealismve0000hopk/page/n97 78]|language=en}}</ref><ref name="Encyclopedia Britannica 1999">{{cite web | title=Odilon Redon - French painter | website=Encyclopedia Britannica | date=27 May 1999 | url=https://www.britannica.com/biography/Odilon-Redon | access-date=16 December 2022}}</ref> According to Surrealist [[André Masson]], Redon's use of bright colors in his flower pastels, as well as his choice of depicting uncommon or imaginary species renders his works "released from stylized naturalism", thus demonstrating the "endless possibilities of lyrical chromatics".<ref>{{Cite book|last=Hauptman|first=Jodi|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=BOYHQAXdgIIC&q=odilon+redon+surrealism&pg=PA52|title=Beyond the Visible: The Art of Odilon Redon|publisher=The Museum of Modern Art|year=2005|isbn=978-0-87070-601-1|location=New York|pages=43|language=en}}</ref>
