About the piece
Painted around 1745 by the influential Welsh landscape painter Richard Wilson, this scene depicts Caernarfon Castle in Wales. The composition features two figures in the foreground on a sandy bank, while the medieval fortress sits across the water, its towers perfectly mirrored in the still surface beneath a soft, atmospheric sky.
