"Travellers by a Ruined Castle" is a landscape painting by the English artist Michael Angelo Rooker (1746–1801), who was known for his watercolour landscapes and architectural subjects. Rooker, a member of the Royal Academy, was often referred to as "Michael 'Angelo' Rooker" in reference to his admiration for the Renaissance master Michelangelo, and he gained recognition for his detailed and picturesque representations of the English countryside.

The painting depicts a pastoral scene with travelers passing by a ruined castle, a subject that reflects the Romantic era's fascination with the sublime and the picturesque—themes that were prevalent in the art and literature of the time. The ruins serve as a testament to the passage of time and the transient nature of human endeavors, while the travelers suggest the ongoing journey of life amidst the remnants of the past.

"Travellers by a Ruined Castle" is characteristic of Rooker's style, which often included the use of strong lines and a keen attention to architectural detail and the effects of light and shadow. His work contributed to the development of landscape painting in Britain, bridging the gap between topographical accuracy and the expressive potential of the natural world.

As an artist, Rooker was also known for his engravings and book illustrations, which further disseminated his vision of the British landscape. His paintings are held in various art collections and have been exhibited in numerous galleries, offering viewers a glimpse into the picturesque aesthetic of the 18th century.

The painting serves as an example of the era's artistic trends and Rooker's personal contribution to the genre of landscape painting. It remains an important work for the study of British art history and the cultural context in which it was created.
