C. Richards

C. Richards is a British Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at National Library of Wales.

This 19th-century painter built quiet dramas out of sturdy stone and shifting light. In Aberystwyth Castle and Harbour (1840), the castle’s crumbling towers frame a harbor where fishing boats bob against leaden water, the sky a strip of pale blue above. Look closer and you’ll spot the wet cobblestones catching reflections, the whole scene held together by a single red buoy. Ready to walk the same harbor? Tap into Aberystwyth Castle and Harbour to take a closer look.
