About the piece
Painted in 1917 by Emile Alexay, this atmospheric oil on cardboard captures the silhouette of Vajdahunyad Castle in Budapest. The muted earth tones and soft, diffused light create a contemplative, old-world mood, with the skeletal forms of winter trees adding a layer of depth and texture to the composition.
