EDITORS COMMENTS
Carn Castle, Ballygally Head (c1828): A Watercolour Masterpiece by Andrew Nicholl Nestled along the rugged coastline of County Antrim, Northern Ireland, lies the picturesque ruins of Carn Castle, perched atop Ballygally Head. This stunning watercolour drawing, created by the talented Irish artist Andrew Nicholl in 1828, captures the essence of this historic site in exquisite detail. Andrew Nicholl (1804-1886) was a renowned Irish artist and draftsman, known for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to bring the natural beauty of Ireland to life through his art. In this particular work, he expertly depicts Carn Castle in all its glory, with its towering walls, battlements, and the crashing waves of the Irish Sea in the foreground. The castle, which dates back to the 16th century, is steeped in history and legend. It was built by the MacDonnell clan, who ruled over the area for centuries, and was later used as a garrison during the English occupation of Ireland. The name "Carn" is believed to derive from the Irish word "carraig," meaning rock, a fitting name for this castle built upon the rugged headland. Ballygally Head, the location of Carn Castle, is a popular tourist destination, offering breathtaking views of the Irish Sea and the Antrim Coast. Visitors can explore the castle ruins, take a leisurely stroll along the coastal path, or simply sit and enjoy the tranquility of the surrounding landscape. This watercolour drawing by Andrew Nicholl is a testament to the rich history and natural beauty of Ireland, and serves as a reminder of the past while inspiring awe and wonder in all who behold it.
