Sterling Castle - No. 1
Item Information
- Title:
- Sterling Castle - No. 1
- Description:
-
The castle buildings rise from a precipitous cliff, the highest point of which is approximately half way across the plate. Beneath the rock the broken ground still falls steeply. On its lower slopes is a cluster of houses; to the nearest of these a round out-house is attached, with a curious conical roof. The castle and rock are drawn in all essentials, but the slope of the hill is not yet put in, and there are no buildings in the lower part of the plate except one unfinished house towards the left.
