circa 1890: The glass entrance of Kibble Palace at the Botanic Gardens in Glasgow. Kibble Palace was built by engineer John Kibble at his home in Loch Long and dismantled to be transported to Glasgow and reassembled in 1873. The building was originally used for events and both Disraeli and Gladstone spoke there as rectors of Glasgow University. The Royal Botanic collection was started in 1881 and the glass building now houses plants from temperate zones including New Zealand and the Mediterranean. (Photo by Hulton Archive/Getty Images)

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of the Botanic Gardens in Glasgow, circa 1890. The focal point of the image is the magnificent glass entrance of Kibble Palace, a true architectural marvel. Built by engineer John Kibble at his home in Loch Long and later transported to Glasgow for reassembly in 1873, this grand structure has witnessed countless events throughout its history. Notably, both Disraeli and Gladstone graced its halls as rectors of Glasgow University. Originally intended for hosting such prestigious gatherings, Kibble Palace now serves as a sanctuary for an exquisite collection of plants from temperate zones around the world. From New Zealand to the Mediterranean, these botanical wonders thrive within its transparent walls. The Royal Botanic collection was established in 1881 and continues to flourish within this iconic glass building. As you gaze upon this black-and-white landscape photograph, you can almost feel yourself stepping into another era. The pillars stand tall and proud amidst lush greenery, evoking a sense of tranquility that only nature can provide. Transport yourself to a bygone age as you admire this stunning piece capturing the timeless beauty and rich history of one of Scotland's most cherished landmarks - the Botanic Gardens' Kibble Palace.
