EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in vibrant color lithography, this print transports us back to the grand opening of Baxter Park in Dundee on September 9th, 1863. The 19th-century scene is filled with an air of celebration and festivity as the city comes together to commemorate this momentous occasion. The image showcases a large crowd gathered around the park's pavilion, eagerly awaiting the commencement of the opening ceremonies. Flags and banners flutter proudly in the breeze, adding a touch of patriotic splendor to the scene. The park itself, designed by renowned architect Joseph Paxton and landscaped by George Henry Stokes, stands as a testament to their visionary talents. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are transported to a time when pageantry reigned supreme. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as dignitaries and locals alike come together for this joyous event. It serves as a reminder of how important public spaces were even then - places where communities could gather and create lasting memories. This illustration not only captures an important milestone in Dundee's history but also pays homage to William Husband McFarlane's artistic prowess. Through his skilled handiwork after A. Arnst's original artwork, he brings vibrancy and life to this historical moment. Displayed at The McManus museum in Dundee today, this print continues to evoke nostalgia for those who visit it – reminding us all of our shared heritage and the power that parks hold in bringing people together.
