This romantic landscape is probably a view near Penkill Castle, a few miles northeast of Girvan in south Ayrshire which the artist inherited in 1865. She and her lover William Bell Scott spent their summers at Penkill, the castle perched on a promontory overlooking Penwhapple burn. The nearby Firth of Clyde was visible from the castle battlements.
