EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Waterloo Place, The National and Nelsons Monuments and Calton Hill, Edinburgh" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th-century Scotland. The image showcases the initial construction of the iconic National Monument of Scotland before it was left unfinished. Engraved by Thomas Barber in 1829, this print offers a glimpse into daily life during that era. The scene is alive with activity as pedestrians stroll along the street, carriages pass by, and workers diligently construct the monument under scaffolding. The architectural beauty of Edinburgh's Georgian buildings is on full display here. Calton Hill provides a picturesque backdrop for this vibrant cityscape. Its rolling hills create an enchanting contrast against the busy street scene below. As we admire this historical artwork, we can't help but wonder about the stories behind these structures and their significance to Scottish history. This print serves as a reminder of how time has shaped our surroundings while preserving glimpses into our past. With its intricate details and impeccable craftsmanship, Shepherd's engraving transports us back in time to witness an important moment in Edinburgh's architectural evolution. It captures both the grandeur of these monuments and the essence of daily life during that period—a true testament to Thomas Hosmer Shepherd's artistic talent.
