The Ruins of Fast Castle, Berwickshire, Scotland: The Wolf's Crag of the Bride of Lammermoor

William Trost Richards

American, 1833 - 1905

Richards is famous for his paintings of stormy, rocky coasts, which were widely exhibited throughout the United States and England. Gloomy and dramatic, this view of ruins above a pounding sea comments on the forces of time and nature.
