EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the magnificent Craigmillar Castle in Edinburgh, Scotland. A true testament to Scottish history and architectural grandeur, this medieval fortress stands proudly against the backdrop of lush greenery. But it is not just its impressive appearance that makes this castle significant. It holds a special place in the heart of Scottish history as it served as a sanctuary for none other than Mary Queen of Scots herself. Following an illness after giving birth to her son in 1566, Mary sought solace within these ancient walls during her convalescence. The image transports us to a bygone era when castles like Craigmillar were not only symbols of power and defense but also places where important historical figures found refuge and healing. The engraving captures every intricate detail of this remarkable structure with precision and elegance. Published in Picturesque Scotland Its Romantic Scenes and Historical Associations around 1890, this archival piece serves as a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty of Scottish landscapes and their rich cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this vintage picture from Ken Welsh's collection, we are reminded once again why Edinburgh remains one of the most enchanting cities in all of Europe - steeped in history at every turn.
