About the piece
Matthijs Maris, a leading figure of the Hague School who later turned toward Symbolism, painted 'The Enchanted Castle' around 1884. This work exemplifies his late-career obsession with mystical, soft-focus imagery, where the subject emerges like a memory through layers of muted, earthy tones and delicate texture.
