    A gorgeous capture! I have done a painting of this castle many years ago as a commissioned piece and every time I see a photograph of this castle I am reminded of that work. I have not seen the painting since it was delivered, and I’m not even sure that the buyer is still alive as he was getting up there in years, but he so loved the work I did for him. This is the first time I have seen the castle in the snow though. Love it!!

  • HelmD replied

    I would love to see a copy of your art of this place, and even one of it with the snow as well!! So glad it brought back good memories for you!! Thanks for viewing and commenting!
