1644
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Windsor Castle from the Southeast is a 1644 by Wenceslaus Hollar, a Baroque work, depicting Bohemia, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This drawing shows a castle by a river, with a big tree on the left. People are walking along the shore, and a crowd gathers near the water. The sky has wavy lines for clouds, and the castle has tall towers and thick walls. The artist labeled it "Windsor," which is a real castle in England. The word "Bohemia" in the facts refers to where the artist came from, not the scene. Look up Wenceslaus Hollar to see more of his precise, detailed drawings.
Wenceslaus Hollar (Czech: Václav Hollar (Czech pronunciation: ), German: Wenzel Hollar; 23 July 1607 – 25 March 1677) was a Czech engraver, etcher and painter.
