Anne, ma soeur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir? 1817

"Anne, ma soeur Anne, ne vois-tu rien venir?" (1817) by Auguste Garneray is a watercolor depicting a scene from the French fairy tale "Bluebeard." The artwork shows two figures in a Gothic-style setting, the figures are positioned in the interior of a cathedral-like building with stone arches and large windows. The scene evokes a sense of mystery and suspense, making it a striking example of Romantic era painting. Garneray, a French painter born in 1785, specialized in marine painting but also created several theatre designs like this one. The drawing is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY.
