About the piece
Painted in 1870 by John Cambrian Rowland, this oil painting depicts a town bellringer in Caernarvon, Wales. Dressed in a traditional tall black hat and checkered shawl, she is captured with a dignity that complements the monumental silhouette of Caernarfon Castle and the busy maritime activity in the harbor behind her.
