EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this collection of six Victorian-era scraps, showcasing some of Scotland's most famous historic buildings and structures. Dating back to the late 1890s, these beautifully preserved prints transport us to a bygone era, filled with charm and wonder. Beginning in the southern reaches of Scotland, we find the imposing ruins of Caerlaverock Castle in Dumfries. This medieval fortress, with its distinctive triangular shape and moat, stands proudly amidst the lush greenery, its history echoing through the ages. Moving northward, we encounter the picturesque Old Mill at Thirsk, nestled amongst the trees, its blue waters reflecting the tranquility of the surrounding countryside. A stark contrast to the grandeur of the castles, this humble structure represents the simple, rural life of the time. Next, we journey to the outskirts of Edinburgh to explore the enigmatic Roslin Castle, also known as Roslin Chapel. With its intricate stone carvings and unique architecture, this historic site remains a favorite among visitors seeking a glimpse into Scotland's rich heritage. Our tour continues near Glasgow, where the impressive Bothwell Castle awaits. This Middle Ages fortress, with its imposing archways and towering walls, is a testament to the power and grandeur of Scotland's past. Lastly, we take a moment to appreciate the beauty of a traditional Scottish cottage, nestled amidst the trees and bathed in the soft light of the late Victorian era. This charming, blue-painted abode serves as a reminder that even in the midst of grandeur, there is beauty to be found in the simplicity of rural life.
