Titled “Urquhart Castle Loch Ness Scottish Highlands Nocturnal Moonlight,” this piece is a romantic nocturne painted in tribute to famed Scottish artist James Bell Anderson.
The scene captures a moonlit Highland night: the moon breaks through a dramatic, cloud-strewn sky, casting silver reflections across the still waters of the loch. Two tall trees on the left stand silhouetted in the foreground, guiding the viewer's eye along the curving shoreline toward the illuminated castle ruins. Executed in oil with rich texture and subtle luminosity, the work beautifully balances realism with romantic mood.
