About this work

You see a castle in the distance with a horse and bull grazing in front of it. The castle is a tower house, a common type of building in Ireland during this time. It's interesting that the artist included everyday animals in the scene, which gives us a glimpse into rural life. Check out the work of artist Beranger, Gabriel, ca.1729-1817, to see more watercolor scenes like this one.
