EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1925, capturing the haunting beauty of Threave Castle in Castle Douglas, Dumfries and Galloway. The crumbling tower stands as a testament to its turbulent past, once belonging to the notorious black Douglases clan. As we gaze upon this ancient structure situated on the banks of the River Dee, it's hard not to be drawn into its rich history. The castle's dark secrets are revealed through its unique feature - a gallows knob positioned above the entrance door. This macabre detail serves as a chilling reminder of how the black Douglases dealt with their enemies, hanging them for all to see. It is an eerie symbol that adds an extra layer of intrigue and mystery to this already enigmatic fortress. However, time has taken its toll on Threave Castle. In 1640, during a period known as The Covenanters' Rebellion, it fell into enemy hands and was subsequently dismantled. Yet even in ruins, this medieval stronghold exudes an undeniable grandeur that continues to captivate visitors from around the world. Alfred Hind Robinson skillfully captures this timeless scene in his panoramic photograph. Through his lens, he transports us back centuries ago when Threave Castle was still intact and bustling with life. This stunning image invites us to immerse ourselves in Scotland's rich heritage while marveling at both its architectural splendor and historical significance.
