About the piece
This 1789 watercolor by Paul Sandby depicts Conway Castle on the coast of Wales. Sandby, a founding member of the Royal Academy, was renowned for his ability to combine topographical accuracy with romantic, atmospheric light, seen here in the delicate treatment of the sky and the soft shadows cast across the water.
