Note: Félix Choisnard was a student and friend of the painter Emmauel Lansyer (Île de Bouin, 1835 – Paris, 1893), who often painted the Chevreuse Valley and met up with his painter friends Pelouse and Harpignies in Cernay. Félix Choisnard painted with Lansyer, and here he gives us a romanticized view (the rocky spur is more pronounced than in reality) of the Château de la Madeleine, whose silhouette can be recognized in a forest landscape at sunset.
