Drumnakeel and Fairhead from Murloch Farm
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite watercolor drawing created by Andrew Nicholl in the year 1828. This piece of art offers a breathtaking view of two prominent landmarks in County Antrim, Northern Ireland - Drumnakeel and Fairhead. Andrew Nicholl, born in 1804, was a skilled artist known for his detailed and accurate depictions of the Irish landscape. His mastery of watercolor technique is evident in this drawing, which showcases the stunning natural beauty of the area. The painting captures the rugged coastline of Northern Ireland, with the distinctive silhouette of Fairhead, a 286-meter high cliff, dominating the scene. The cliff's steep slopes and jagged edges contrast sharply with the tranquil waters of the Irish Sea below. To the left, Drumnakeel, a small, flat-topped hill, rises gently from the landscape. Murloch Farm, located at the foot of Drumnakeel, adds a sense of scale to the drawing. The farmstead, with its neatly arranged buildings and verdant fields, appears idyllic against the backdrop of the dramatic cliffs and sea. The intricate details of the farm and the surrounding landscape are rendered with remarkable precision, making this drawing a valuable record of the area's history and topography. This watercolor drawing, with its rich colors and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the past and provides a testament to the natural beauty of County Antrim. It is a must-see for anyone interested in Irish history, art, or landscape, and a beautiful addition to any collection.
