EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the majestic Castle Howel, nestled within the picturesque Barony of Kells in County Kilkenny, Ireland. The print is a remarkable reproduction from George Virtue's renowned work "Scenery and Antiquities of Ireland" dating back to the 1860s. The image showcases the grandeur and architectural marvel of Castle Howel, with its imposing fortress-like structure dominating the landscape. Its sturdy arches and crumbling ruins evoke a sense of history and mystery that captivates our imagination. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details captured by William Henry Bartlett's skilled hand. From chimneys rising into the sky to corbels adorning ancient walls, every element tells a story of centuries past. The castle's battlements stand tall against time's relentless passage, reminding us of its former glory as a strategic stronghold. The bastions and parapets speak volumes about its defensive capabilities during turbulent times. Through this print, we are transported to an era long gone but not forgotten – where knights once roamed these halls and whispered secrets echoed through these corridors. It serves as a testament to Ireland's rich heritage and invites us to explore further into its fascinating history. This exquisite piece from Ken Welsh's private collection allows us to appreciate both Virtue's artistic vision and Bartlett's meticulous craftsmanship while immersing ourselves in the timeless beauty of Castle Howel.
