EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical Netherbow Port in Edinburgh, Scotland. The image takes us back to a time when this magnificent gate stood tall and proud, protecting the city's entrance. Unfortunately, its grandeur was short-lived as it was demolished in 1764. The Netherbow Port holds immense significance for Scots and Scottish history enthusiasts alike. Its presence symbolized strength, fortifications, and the rich heritage of Edinburgh. This particular print is derived from "The Scots Worthies According to Howies Second Edition" published in 1781 but made available to the public in 1879. Ken Welsh's attention to detail brings out every intricate aspect of this remarkable structure. The imposing walls surrounding the port are beautifully captured, reminding us of their once formidable nature. The gatehouse itself stands as a testament to Scotland's architectural brilliance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but imagine what life would have been like during that era - bustling streets filled with merchants and travelers passing through these gates into the heart of Edinburgh. Whether you're an admirer of Scottish history or simply appreciate stunning photography, this print serves as a timeless reminder of a bygone era. It allows us to connect with our past while appreciating the beauty that remains today within Scotland's vibrant capital city.
