EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Regent Bridge, Edinburgh" engraved by Thomas Barber in 1829. The image transports us back to the early 19th century, capturing the essence of a bustling street scene in Scotland's capital city. The Regent Bridge stands proudly as the focal point of this engraving, its elegant Georgian architecture commanding attention. Built in 1816, it serves as both a functional bridge and a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of its time. Cobbled roads wind beneath it, lined with charming houses that add character to the landscape. In this snapshot from history, we witness life unfolding on these streets. A horse-drawn cart traverses the road while pedestrians go about their daily routines. The atmosphere is alive with activity and energy; one can almost hear the sounds of hooves clattering against cobblestones and distant conversations echoing through narrow alleyways. Thomas Hosmer Shepherd expertly captures this moment in time through his meticulous engravings. His work was featured in "Modern Athens! Displayed in a Series of Views: Or Edinburgh in the nineteenth century" published between 1829-31. This particular piece is part of a private collection but has been made available for public appreciation. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to an era long gone yet preserved forever within these intricate lines etched by Thomas Barber's skilled hand. It is a testament not only to artistic talent but also to our ability to connect with history
