This painting captures three elegantly dressed women, viewed from behind, gazing out from a balcony at a dramatic moonlit landscape. The scene is saturated with dark romance and an intense romantic atmosphere, reminiscent of late 19th-century Symbolist and Academic painting. The play of light is masterful, with the pale moonlight highlighting the sheen of their gowns and the wet, reflective surface of the balcony floor, contrasting sharply with the deep, muted tones of the storm-laden sky.
