EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage photograph of Peebles, a picturesque town nestled in the heart of the Scottish Borders during the Victorian era. The image, captured by an unidentified photographer in the late 1800s or early 1900s, transports us to a bygone era with its intriguing details and evocative atmosphere. The photograph showcases the town's charming streets, lined with stone houses and quaint shops, illuminated by the soft glow of gas lamps. In the foreground, a man can be seen adjusting a lantern slide projector, perhaps preparing to entertain guests with a slideshow of his travels or local scenes. The Edwardian-era attire of the figures in the photograph adds to the sense of history and nostalgia. Peebles, with its rich history and scenic beauty, has long been a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. The town's proximity to the River Tweed and the surrounding hills and forests make it an idyllic setting for outdoor pursuits, while its cultural offerings, including the annual Border Reivers Festival and the Eastgate Theatre and Arts Centre, attract visitors from far and wide. This photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the past and serves as a reminder of the enduring charm and allure of Peebles and the Scottish Borders during the Victorian period.
