About the piece

Painted in 1896 by Pierre-Georges Jeanniot, this atmospheric work captures the unique architectural detail of Victor Hugo's residence in Guernsey. The scene highlights the 'Look-out', a glass-walled room bathed in soft light, featuring an ornate ceramic stove, intricate tiling, and flourishing hydrangeas that lend a serene, scholarly air to the composition.
