"Harlech Castle" is a notable artwork by Frederick Catherwood, a British artist and architect renowned for his detailed drawings and lithographs of ruins in the Americas. Born in 1799, Catherwood's work is often associated with his explorations in the Maya civilization alongside American explorer John Lloyd Stephens. However, his artistic repertoire also includes a series of illustrations depicting landscapes and architectural subjects from his travels and studies in Europe and the Near East.

"Harlech Castle," created in the 19th century, showcases Catherwood's skill in architectural drawing and his keen eye for detail. The artwork depicts Harlech Castle, a medieval fortress located in Harlech, in the Snowdonia region of Gwynedd, Wales. Built by Edward I during his invasion of Wales between 1282 and 1289, the castle is a prime example of military architecture of the time and has been a source of inspiration for artists, poets, and writers over the centuries.

Catherwood's rendition of Harlech Castle is significant for its meticulous attention to architectural detail and its ability to convey the imposing nature of the fortress. His work is characterized by a high degree of accuracy and an almost photographic quality, which was revolutionary at the time. This piece, like many of his works, serves not only as a piece of art but also as an important historical document, providing insight into the appearance and condition of the castle during the 19th century.

The artwork is part of Catherwood's broader body of work that contributed to the Victorian era's fascination with historical and exotic locations. Through his detailed lithographs and drawings, Catherwood played a crucial role in documenting architectural wonders and ancient ruins, bringing them to the attention of the Western world. "Harlech Castle" exemplifies Catherwood's mastery in blending art with archaeological precision, offering viewers a glimpse into the past through the lens of one of the 19th century's most innovative artists and explorers.
