Peveril Castle, Castleton in Derbyshire is high up in the Peak District. The castle is viewed through the gorge. The rugged terrain in this etching cleverly has aerial perspective giving a sense of depth to the gorge. This etching is one of a number of states of the subject as is likely to the the last state due to the amount of ink in the composition.
