Courtyard in the Castle, Tripoli

This drawing was made whilst as a guest of the head of the Libyan Department of Antiquities, Dr Salah in 2011, whilst working in Libya. The castle looks down over Green Square in Tripoli.

A wonderful series of spaces exist within the castle, courtyards, open corridors, gardens and cloisters.

The usual excuses for the unfinished nature of the drawing - limited time, inqusitive reisdents etc.

Drawn on Ivory Daler Rowney Mounting Board.
