The focal point is undoubtedly the magnificent Monument and St Magnus the Martyr Church on the left. As we delve into this snapshot from history, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details that bring this bustling scene to life. Figures and carriages fill the streets, showcasing daily life in all its diversity. The architecture of buildings lining both sides of Fish Street Hill stands as a testament to 18th-century craftsmanship and design. The color palette chosen by Audinet adds depth and richness to this engraving, allowing us to imagine what it must have been like walking these very streets over two centuries ago. It's an image that transports us back in time, evoking a sense of awe for both the architectural wonders before us and for those who once walked these same paths.
