A Summer Evening by Lamp and by Moonlight | Petrus van Schendel | 1855

A group gathers around a small table while a seated woman plays the guitar. The shaded lamp illuminates faces from below and picks out the floral pattern of her dress; further back, the garden falls into blue moonlight, with a statue and distant windows barely emerging from the trees. Van Schendel gives each source of light its own reach and colour. The result is a carefully observed social scene, its shared attention and small gestures held within an unusually expansive night.
