About the piece

Painted in 1902 by Louis François Léon Gautier, this oil on panel work captures a serene view from the Villa Acantha in Aix-en-Provence. The composition overlooks the hospital courtyard, leading the eye toward a distant Gothic tower, all bathed in the muted, golden tones of a hazy sunset.
