Yolande Dalbert (de La Rochefoucauld) - Château dans un paysage, Yolande de La Rochefoucauld
Château in a landscape
pencil drawing with white highlights
château in a landscape differs from the previous drawing in its restlessness. The cloud-laden sky and wind-tossed trees contrast with the robust, imperturbable appearance of the castle. It seems as if the artist wanted to contrast the forces of nature with those of the most enduring of human creations: architecture. Date: 2nd half of 19th century.
