This is a landscape by the Danish painter Vilhelm Hammershøi, and the title tells us it is lit by the moon. Night scenes of this kind invite a slow, attentive look. Hammershøi is best known for poetic, subdued portraits and interiors, so a moonlit view offers a quieter, outdoor side of his work. In 1905 the poet Rainer Maria Rilke observed that his work is wide-ranging and slow, and that it always gives us something to say about what matters in art. It is a picture to return to, rather than take in at a glance.
On your wall: Its moonlit subject suits calm spaces such as bedrooms, studies and quiet corners of a living room, where a restrained, minimalist mood is wanted.
