Bangor, with Penmaenmawr in the distance is a 1795 watercolor by Nicholas Pocock, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a landscape with a village in the distance, surrounded by mountains and a body of water. In the foreground, there are trees and bushes on the left side, and people and animals are scattered throughout the scene. The painting is done in watercolor, with soft colors that give it a dreamy quality. The artist has used light and shadow to create depth and texture in the scene.
