The finesse in the depiction of arches and columns adds a Gothic feel to the atmosphere, while the clear, ample sky that dominates the upper part of the sketch suggests a quiet day, possibly inviting the viewer to ruminate on the lives once lived within these walls.David Roberts’ skill in architectural rendering is evident as he encapsulates both the physical grandeur and the haunting beauty of Linlithgow Palace.

David Roberts (24 October 1796 – 25 November 1864) was a Scottish painter. He is especially known for The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt, and Nubia, a prolific series of detailed lithograph prints of Egypt and the Near East that he produced from sketches he made during long tours of the region (1838–1840). These and his large oil paintings of similar subjects made him a prominent Orientalist painter. He was elected as a Royal Academician in 1841.
