EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Edinburgh in the 19th century. The view from the Corn Exchange, located in the vibrant Grassmarket district, offers a stunning perspective of one of Scotland's most iconic landmarks - Edinburgh Castle. The artist skillfully captures the grandeur and architectural splendor of this ancient fortress perched atop Castle Rock. Its imposing silhouette dominates the skyline, evoking a sense of power and history that has withstood centuries. The castle's rugged stone walls and turrets stand as a testament to its enduring strength. In this lively street scene, we see people going about their daily lives against this majestic backdrop. Market stalls line the cobblestone streets, offering an array of goods and produce to eager shoppers. The hustle and bustle create a vibrant atmosphere that is characteristic of city life during this era. This engraving was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on August 18th, 1860. It serves as both a historical document and a work of art, capturing not only the physical beauty but also providing insight into daily life in Victorian Edinburgh. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we have access to these remarkable glimpses into our past – allowing us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind such engravings and gain a deeper understanding of our cultural heritage.
