Rocky shore with castle ruins 

This pen and ink drawing by Franz Kobell, a German artist active in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, depicts a rocky shore with the ruins of a castle perched atop a cliff. The artist's use of hatching creates a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the rough, craggy surface of the rocks. The drawing is a fine example of the Romantic era's fascination with nature and the picturesque qualities of ruins.
