This watercolor shows a worn stone castle near Dublin. A man carries logs in the yard. Another man in the front looks down at a paper or plan. Beranger often drew old buildings this way. He used watercolor and small glazes to show light and age. The colors stay soft but clear. This feels like early Irish views. Look up Beranger, Gabriel, ca.1729-1817.
