The detailed steeple in the center is particularly striking, standing as a testament to the architectural beauty that Inverness holds. The foreground of the drawing is dominated by what appears to be a body of water, possibly a river, lined with wooden structures that could be docks or walkways, adding a sense of depth and perspective to the scene.Roberts's skill in depicting light and shadow through subtle gradations in shading enhances the tranquil mood of the drawing. The open skies and soft cloud formations further contribute to the overall calmness, inviting viewers to reflect on the quiet beauty of Inverness.

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.
