Schalken The Painter, By Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, Paranormal Horror & Ghost Story
"Schalken the Painter" is a short ghost story by the Irish author Sheridan Le Fanu. It was first published in the Dublin University Magazine in May 1839. A modified version of the story, titled "Strange Event in the Life of Schalken the Painter" was published in the anthology The Purcell Papers in 1880.
The action takes place in the Netherlands in the 17th century. The story's title character, Godfrey Schalken, is a young artist who is an apprentice of the painter Gerard Douw. Schalken and Rose Velderkaust, Douw's young niece and ward, love each other. Knowing that Douw would not allow a poor and unknown artist to marry his niece, Schalken does not speak about his love for Rose to his master. When a mysterious and wealthy man asks for Rose's hand in marriage, Douw agrees, even though the man looks like a corpse.
