Cowes Castle, Isle of Wight: the marine light according to John Inigo Richards
The composition captures a play of light on the castle façade and subtle reflections in the water, blending ochre tones, pale blues, and pearl gray. The technique reveals precise drawing and a measured palette that elegantly reproduce the coastal atmosphere: nuanced sky, settled architecture, and delicate water ripples. The eye is drawn to the play of perspectives between the shoreline and distant silhouettes, while the controlled brushwork imparts a sense of tranquility and clarity. This visual reading invites contemplation of the scene as a suspended moment between land and sea.
