The Old Wind Mill at Rathgar Quarry, Dublin, in graphite and watercolour on paper, by George Petrie.

A stone windmill stands on the lip of a raw yellow quarry, its sails stark against a dark sky with a rainbow arcing behind, and a tiny figure working far below at the foot of the cut. Petrie paints the quarry walls in hot ochre against the grey storm, a south Dublin view long gone. The sheet measures about 26 × 33 cm. This work is in the collection of the National Gallery of Ireland.

About the Artist

George Petrie (1790–1866), born in Dublin, was a landscape painter and antiquarian who travelled Ireland recording its ruins, round towers and castles. He also collected traditional Irish music, and his watercolours are among the most valued early records of the Irish landscape. The National Gallery of Ireland holds a large group of his work.
