EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the historic streets of Edinburgh. The Canongate, looking West, is beautifully captured in this 19th-century print. As we gaze upon the scene, our eyes are drawn to the immediate right where we see the house that once served as a residence for Gay, an intriguing figure from history whose story remains shrouded in mystery. On the left side of the image stands the majestic Gate of Milton House, its grandeur adding a touch of elegance to this bustling street. This gate serves as a reminder of Edinburgh's rich architectural heritage and transports us to a bygone era when such structures were commonplace. The composition exudes an air of nostalgia and invites us to imagine what life was like during those times. We can almost hear the clip-clop of horse-drawn carriages echoing through these cobblestone streets and envision locals going about their daily routines. This engraving originally appeared as an illustration for Cassells Old and New Edinburgh publication in 1885. Thanks to digital restoration techniques, it has been brought back to life with remarkable clarity. As we admire this snapshot from history, let us appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its ability to transport us into another world - one filled with stories waiting to be discovered within each stone and building along The Canongate.
