Painting, watercolour, South East View of the Citadel of
Carlisle, Cumberland, by Robert Carlyle snr, about 1792.
Citadel on a bright sunny day, its ramparts thrown into
partial shadow. In the foreground two men, one holding a
spade slung over his shoulder and the other leaning on a
stick, stand conversing on a path which passes through the
meadow in which there are two cows, one standing whilst the
other lies down. Sandstone buildings lie to either side of
the citadel, most of which have smoke issuing from their
chimneys.
