Taken from George Virtue's "Scenery and Antiquities of Ireland" collection in the 1860s, this engraving by William Henry Bartlett captures the essence of this breathtaking landscape. The image showcases a stunning mountain range as it majestically overlooks a serene lake. The tranquil waters gently lap against the shore where a rowing boat rests peacefully. In the distance, we catch sight of a sailing vessel gracefully gliding across the water, adding an element of movement to this otherwise still scene.
