Welsh Landscape with a Ruined Castle by a Lake
Richard Wilson British, Welsh
Not on view
In the 1760s, Wilson began to adapt the idealizing tendencies of the grand manner long associated with Italianate landscapes to British views. This informal little painting does not depict an actual site, but it bears affinities with Welsh subjects such as Dolbadarn Castle and Okehampton Castle that the artist painted in the 1760s and 70s.
