Holy Island cont

This painting hangs on the wall in one of the rooms in the Castle, sadly I cant find the Artists sig, but it sure grabs your attention as you walk into the room, and you are allowed to photograph it, but as all pics in the castle - you cant use flash.

Good they allow you to photograph inside - I've been a few times but never been inside.
