About this work

This black-and-white print shows a riverbank with a few scattered rocks in the foreground. Behind it, a ruined castle sits on a hill, surrounded by trees and smaller buildings. A few people stand near the water, looking toward the castle. The text at the bottom reads *"Ruinen des Schlosses Weidenech"*—meaning "ruins of Weidenech Castle." The artist signed it in 1819. Next, look up Jakob Alt (Austrian, 1789–1872) to see more of his work.
