EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage photograph of Tolbooth, Canongate, Edinburgh, as captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. Dating back to the Victorian or Edwardian era, this image transports us to a bygone age with its intriguing charm and historical significance. The Tolbooth, located on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh's Old Town, is a former prison, courthouse, and market cross. Its distinctive red sandstone facade, adorned with intricate carvings and decorative details, stands proudly against the backdrop of the Edinburgh skyline. In this photograph, the Tolbooth is bathed in the soft glow of gas lamps, their warm light illuminating the cobblestone streets and casting long shadows. The photograph's composition is further enhanced by the presence of a street lantern, its glass shade casting a warm, inviting light on the scene. The image invites us to imagine the hustle and bustle of daily life in this historic Scottish town, as horse-drawn carriages rumble by and merchants set up their stalls in the marketplace. As we gaze at this photograph, we are reminded of the rich history and cultural heritage that Edinburgh has to offer. The Tolbooth, with its fascinating past and architectural beauty, is a must-see attraction for any visitor to this enchanting city. This vintage photograph is not only a stunning work of art but also a precious window into the past, offering us a glimpse into the lives of our ancestors and the world they inhabited.
