This painting shows St. Andrews Castle from the southeast. The castle is old and worn down, with parts of it crumbling into the sea. It was photographed from a high point, which makes the castle look small compared to the surrounding landscape. You can learn more about this style of photography by looking into the work of artist: David Octavius Hill (British, 1802–1870)
