Moonlight 

Editor: This is John Berney Crome's "Moonlight," housed at the Tate. I find it incredibly atmospheric, like a scene from a gothic novel. What strikes you most about it? Curator: It whispers secrets, doesn't it? I'm drawn to the way Crome uses light. It's not just illumination; it's emotional. The moon seems to be holding its breath. A tiny windmill, almost hidden. Editor: Yes, the windmill, barely visible. Curator: Makes you wonder what stories it could tell, bathed in moonlight. It makes me feel as though Crome is trying to capture a fleeting moment. Editor: I see that now. Thanks, that's really helpful! Curator: My pleasure. It's like catching whispers in the dark, isn't it?
