The painting depicts a fantastic scene with a running ghost in a translucent white garment.

The surrounding trees have red and orange hues and are shrouded in darkness. Several black cats can be seen in the foreground and several skulls are scattered on the ground. The whole atmosphere of the painting is restless and magical.

Eugene Samuel Grasset (1845-1917). Swiss illustrator and painter living in Paris. He was a pioneer of the painting style and design called Art Nouveau. He admired Japanese art. He created the image of jewellery, porcelain, furniture, tapestries and sculptures. In the early 80s of the 19th century, he focused on graphics – he designed stamps, posters, cover pages of magazines, advertisements, and the like. For his talent, the French art posters became known even in the USA. Thus, Grasset aided in the massive expansion of Art Nouveau in the United States.
