A Strange Adventure in the Life of Miss Laura Mildmay | Felix Kelly | 1947

Felix Kelly transforms a country house into a setting of Gothic suspense. A lone figure approaches its pale façade along an empty road, while bare branches, leaning gravestones and the immense shadow of a rocky hillside unsettle the apparent order of the architecture. The restrained earth colours and sharply contrasting light give the scene the stillness of a disturbing dream. Associated with J. Sheridan Le Fanu’s A Strange Adventure in the Life of Miss Laura Mildmay, published with Kelly’s illustrations in 1947, the image reflects his enduring interest in uncanny buildings and landscapes.
