About the piece
Painted in 1862 by Hans von Marées, this work captures the serene and stately atmosphere of the Munich Royal Residence. The composition centers on a dramatic fountain topped with a statue of Perseus, while a woman and a peacock add life to the sunlight-dappled stone courtyard. This painting beautifully demonstrates the artist's ability to blend architectural precision with soft, atmospheric lighting.
