"May 3rd. Bistritz. - - Left Munich at 8.35 P.M., on 1st May arriving at Vienna early next morning; should have arrived at 6.46, but train was an hour late."
Here's another literary link for you. The opening line quoted above doesn't give much away but the painting should help you to identify this famous novel. Whitby must be one of the most painted locations ever. Of course with its iconic skyline featuring the ruins of Whitby Abbey it certainly is an artists dream. This is my interpretation, deliberately set as night falls to conjure up echoes of the great Gothic tale forever associated with Whitby. You must have guessed it by now and of course you are right ....the novel is "Dracula" by Bram Stoker.
If your association with the Count is based on TV and films you are missing out. Take the time to read the novel and you will find yourself in a mysterious, dream-like and terrifying world. Pass the garlic!
