Castle Rackrent is a short novel by Maria Edgeworth published in 1800. It tells the story of four generations of Rackrent heirs through their steward, Thady Quirk. The heirs are the dissipated spendthrift Sir Patrick O'Shaughlin, the litigious Sir Murtagh Rackrent, the cruel husband and gambling absentee Sir Kit Rackrent, and the generous but improvident Sir Condy Rackrent. Their sequential mismanagement of the estate is resolved through the machinations—and to the benefit—of the narrator's astute son, Jason Quirk.

Fourteen watercolor drawings by Ralph Sneyd, circa 1806, depicting character's from Maria Edgeworth's Castle Rackrent. The watercolors are bound in: Castle Rackrent : an Hibernian Tale, taken from facts, and from the manners of the Irish Squires, before the year 1782 ... a new edition (London: Printed for R. Hunter, 1815). All of the drawings are executed in watercolor over graphite, on sheets of uniform size (29 x 20 cm), which have been affixed to blank leaves in the present volume. All but one of the drawings are captioned, and some include a brief excerpt of text from the novel. The caricatures demonstrate fair skill and considerable humor. They are executed much in the style of Henry William Bunbury.
