This watercolour painting depicts a large, multi-story building with a dark roof and light-coloured walls. The building has several windows and a large arched doorway on the ground floor. To the left of the building, a row of smaller buildings stretches into the distance. The sky above is cloudy and grey. The painting is done in a realistic style, with attention to detail in the architecture and textures of the buildings. The use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the scene. The Haunted House, Dieppe is a great example of Ambrose McEvoy's skill with watercolour. To see more of his work, look up the artist Ambrose McEvoy.
