EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us to the breathtaking landscape of Keiss Castle in Caithness, Scotland during the years 1924-1926. The foreground showcases the elegant new Keiss Castle, a magnificent structure built in 1755 by Sir William Sinclair of Dunbeath. Its grandeur is juxtaposed against the hauntingly beautiful ruins of the castle constructed by George, 5th Earl of Caithness around the late 16th century, which can be seen in the distance. The image captures not only architectural marvels but also highlights Scotland's stunning natural surroundings. The castle stands proudly on a picturesque coastline, with waves crashing against its rocky shores. This coastal setting adds an element of drama and emphasizes both the fortification's historical significance and its vulnerability to time and nature. The monochrome aesthetic further enhances this sense of history and nostalgia, transporting viewers back to a bygone era when these castles were at their peak glory. It evokes a sense of mystery as we contemplate what stories these ancient walls hold within them. This remarkable photograph is part of Hutchinsons Britain Beautiful collection edited by Walter Hutchinson in volume I from 1924-1926. Through this print, we are reminded not only of Scotland's rich architectural heritage but also its rugged beauty that has captivated generations for centuries.
