About the piece

Painted in 1896 by Scottish artist David Gauld, a member of the influential Glasgow Boys, this work depicts the 'Haunted Chateau' at Grez-sur-Loing. The composition utilizes a Tonalist approach, employing a veil of vertical poplars to soften the architectural forms and create a sense of quiet mystery, rendered in a sophisticated palette of sage green and pale earth tones.
