About the artwork:

Adelaide Claxton’s The Party on the Stairs (circa 1875) presents a delicate balance between innocence and the uncanny, capturing a young girl’s quiet encounter with a gathering of ghostly figures dressed in 18th-century finery. The child’s posture—frozen, finger to lips—evokes both wonder and hesitation, while the apparitions converse calmly, seemingly unaware of her presence. Through soft lighting and muted tones, Claxton evokes a dreamlike atmosphere that reflects the Victorian fascination with the supernatural. Yet the painting doesn’t descend into horror; instead, it dwells in ambiguity, blurring the line between imagination and reality. The staircase becomes a symbolic threshold, and the entire scene reads as a meditation on childhood perception—how the young can see what adults overlook, and how memory, fear, and fantasy quietly haunt the corners of domestic life.
