The dramatic lighting and fleeting weather effects highlight the rocky cliffs, in an awe-inspiring scene. This painting makes an impact through the artist's ability to interpret the sheer majesty of the forbidding scenery. McCulloch was without doubt the outstanding painter of the romantic view, and he inspired many imitators but no equals. This large oil depicts one of the best-known locations on the Scottish tourist trail.
