Deliberately being aloof from the problems that had captivated such well-known artists of the late XIX — beginning of the XX century, Vrubel, Gauguin, Munch, — searches for the meaning of life, clues future of humanity, uncovering the loneliness of the individual amid the global universe, he tried to think about the intersection of spiritual and physical beauty and visible reality of the human form.

Not all convincingly associated in the creative pursuit of Franz von Grand. They can find examples of coexistence alien to each other aesthetics and stylistic devices. Pieces combine in his paintings the features of academic naturalism and art Nouveau.

Under the influence of Friedrich Nietzsche was created by Fantastico-аллегорические works, imbued with a deliberately brutal symbolism. But in moments of epiphanies this artist was born so the original connection of poetry and revelatory study of romanticism and naturalism, which, indicating a new understanding of the possibilities of art, was a real structural opening. Such works shocked the audience, often causing confusion and scandal among the public, but later received high praise for its poetic tone and originality of thought.
