"Castle on Holy Island, Northumberland" is an aquatint engraving by the British artist William Daniell RA (1769–1837), who was renowned for his landscape and marine prints. The work is part of Daniell's ambitious series of aquatints titled "A Voyage Round Great Britain," which he undertook between 1814 and 1825. This series aimed to depict the coastal scenery of the British Isles and was based on sketches Daniell made during his circumnavigation of the coast.

The specific print, "Castle on Holy Island, Northumberland," captures the historic and picturesque Lindisfarne Castle, located on Holy Island off the northeast coast of England. The castle, which dates back to the 16th century, is perched on a high crag and overlooks the North Sea. Daniell's work reflects his keen eye for detail and his ability to convey the rugged beauty of the British coastline.

William Daniell was an associate (ARA) of the Royal Academy in 1807 and became a full Royal Academician (RA) in 1822. His works, particularly the aquatints from his coastal voyage, were highly regarded for their technical proficiency and artistic merit. "Castle on Holy Island, Northumberland" is a fine example of Daniell's mastery of the aquatint medium, which involves etching on copper or zinc plates and allows for the creation of tonal effects akin to watercolor paintings.

This print not only serves as an important historical record of the British landscape during the early 19th century but also exemplifies the Romantic era's fascination with the sublime and picturesque qualities of nature. It remains a significant work within the oeuvre of William Daniell and continues to be appreciated by art historians and collectors for its aesthetic and historical value.
