EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the 18th century, showcasing the enchanting Crichton Castle in Midlothian. The print, part of a private collection, exudes an air of antiquity and tells a story of bygone times. Crichton Castle stands proudly amidst its surroundings, revealing its age through its weathered appearance. This small castle complex evokes images from fairy tales or royal residences, with its crumbling walls and intricate details. It is as if time has woven a tapestry around this old dwelling, leaving it steeped in history. The skilled engraver has captured every nuance of this historic building, bringing it to life on paper. The fine lines and delicate shading emphasize the ruinous state of the castle while adding depth to the overall composition. As we gaze upon this illustration from "Ruins and Ancient Buildings in England & Wales" published in 1795 by Alex Hogg, we are transported into a world where castles were not mere structures but symbols of power and grandeur.
