This is where I find myself immersed in the rich tapestry of its 12th-century origins, marveling at the strategic location that played a pivotal role in history.

Athlone Castle, built for King John by Bishop John de Gray of Norwich, stands as a testament to its time, originally erected to guard the crucial crossing point of the River Shannon. My painting captures the essence of this historic town and its landmark castle.

Measuring 18 x 22.5 inches and framed, this artwork is a blend of pen and watercolor techniques, offering a unique perspective on Athlone's enduring legacy.
