EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic Glasgow Cathedral from the south-east in the mid-late 19th century. Built between the 13th and 15th centuries, this medieval Gothic cathedral stands as a testament to Scotland's rich history. Despite enduring the Reformation, it remarkably remains unscathed, making it the only cathedral on mainland Scotland to do so. The focal point of this architectural masterpiece is its 13th-century tower, which proudly stands as one of few intact towers on any Scottish medieval church. Within its hallowed walls lies the tomb of St Mungo, revered as Glasgow's patron saint. George Washington Wilson skillfully captured this scene using cinematography techniques that bring depth and dimension to his stereocard image. The monochrome tones enhance both the grandeur and timelessness of this religious landmark. As we gaze upon this photograph today, we are transported back in time to witness a glimpse of Glasgow's past. The gothic spires pierce through an overcast sky while surrounding buildings frame its magnificence against a picturesque landscape. Preserved by The Print Collector for future generations to appreciate, this historic print serves as a reminder of our shared heritage and invites us to reflect on centuries-old traditions rooted in religion and architecture.
