Madman's Hole, Collin Glen (Belfast) - A Watercolour Masterpiece by James Moore (1819-1883) This stunning watercolour painting, titled 'Madman's Hole, Collin Glen (Belfast)', is an exquisite work of art by the Irish artist James Moore, created in the year 1846. The scene depicted in this beautiful drawing showcases the breathtaking beauty of Collin Glen, a picturesque valley located in the heart of Belfast, Northern Ireland. Madman's Hole, a section of the glen renowned for its natural wonders, is the focal point of this artwork. The name 'Madman's Hole' is believed to have originated from the legend of a local hermit who lived in the area during the 17th century. The hermit, it is said, would often throw stones at intruders, giving the impression of a madman. Moore's masterful use of watercolour on paper captures the essence of the glen, with its cascading waterfall, lush greenery, and the intriguing rock formations that make Madman's Hole a unique and enchanting place. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the way he portrays the play of light and shadow on the rocks, the vibrant colours of the foliage, and the tranquil reflection of the scene on the water's surface. This watercolour painting is not only a testament to the natural beauty of Collin Glen but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the artistic prowess of James Moore. His ability to capture the essence of nature and convey it through his art is truly remarkable, making this piece a must-have for any art collection or a perfect addition to any space that seeks to inspire and delight.
