"Kidwelly Castle" is a watercolor painting by Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775–1851), an English Romantic landscape painter, watercolorist, and printmaker. Turner is renowned for his expressive colorization, imaginative landscapes, and turbulent, often violent marine paintings. "Kidwell Castle" exemplifies Turner's fascination with medieval ruins and his mastery in rendering architecture within a landscape.

The painting depicts the ruins of Kidwelly Castle, an imposing Norman fortress located in Carmarthenshire, Wales. The castle, which dates back to the early 12th century, was a subject of interest for many artists during the Romantic period, who were drawn to its picturesque and historical qualities. Turner's rendition of Kidwelly Castle captures the grandeur and decay of the medieval structure, set against the backdrop of the Welsh countryside.

Turner visited Wales several times during his career, and his travels significantly influenced his work. The painting of Kidwelly Castle is believed to have been created after one of Turner's Welsh expeditions, during which he sketched and painted various Welsh landscapes and historical sites. His works from these journeys contributed to the Romantic era's appreciation of the sublime and the picturesque, themes that are evident in the portrayal of Kidwelly Castle.

The watercolor is characterized by Turner's skillful use of light and shadow, which imbues the scene with a sense of drama and emotion. The castle is illuminated in a way that highlights its architectural details and the texture of its stonework, while the surrounding landscape is rendered with loose, expressive brushstrokes that convey the wildness of the natural setting.

"Kidwelly Castle" by J.M.W. Turner is an important work within the artist's oeuvre, as it reflects his interest in historical subjects and his ability to convey the power and beauty of ruins within a landscape. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is considered a fine example of Turner's landscape watercolors, showcasing his unique talent for capturing the essence of a place through his transformative use of color and light.
