This watercolor shows a castle perched on a hill, with stone walls and towers. In front, a river curves past a small bridge, and trees line the banks. The sky is soft with light clouds, and the landscape has warm autumn tones. The artist used loose, sketchy brushstrokes to capture light and movement. The castle looks old but well-kept, blending into the rolling hills. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this painting in person.
