Afterglow - The Alhambra and Sierra Nevada, Granada

Albert Moulton Foweraker was fascinated by the effect of light upon the landscape. He is known especially for his moonlit paintings and use of the colour blue.
The subject of this painting is the Alhambra, the palace and fortress complex in Granada. It was first built in AD 889 on the remains of Roman fortifications and developed further in the 13th century. In the distance is the Sierra Nevada mountain range.
