Painted on a thin portable sketching panel, this is plein air field work by an unidentified British hand, circa 1880 to 1910, with the artist’s own penciled title inscription “Arundel Castle” on the verso. The castle’s pale limestone facades and crenellated towers rise above a dense summer treeline under a high blue sky with impasto clouds, the composition capturing the south and west elevations as seen from the parkland.

The paint layer on the recto is largely intact with the impasto clouds well preserved and the architectural passages reading clearly. There is edge wear to the board consistent with age and field use, including some chipping and loss at the corners. The thin board shows minor warping. The verso carries the artist’s penciled title inscription and incidental paint transfer but no labels, stamps, or additional markings.
