Dundee. A general view of the city of Dundee, showing blocks of high rise
A general view of the city of Dundee, showing blocks of high rise flats under construction. Dundee is most famous for its jute industry which began as a by-product of 18th-century whaling when it was discovered that mixing whale oil with raw jute enabled workers to spin the fibre into fabric. The textile industry flourished in Dundee and at its peak employed 50, 000 people. The area around the city is used for fruit growing, which is the foundation for a thriving jam industry founded by Mrs Keiller, who began making the famous Dundee marmalade in 1797. Captain Scott?s ship ?Discovery? was built in the local shipyards on Tayside for its journey to the Antarctic in 1901 and has recently been restored for the city to display in dry dock as a tourist attraction.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a general view of the city of Dundee, showcasing blocks of high rise flats under construction. Known for its rich history in the jute industry, Dundee's roots trace back to the 18th-century whaling era when workers discovered that mixing whale oil with raw jute enabled them to spin the fiber into fabric. This breakthrough led to a flourishing textile industry that once employed an impressive 50,000 individuals at its peak. Beyond its association with jute, Dundee also boasts a thriving jam industry thanks to Mrs Keiller, who pioneered the famous Dundee marmalade in 1797 using locally grown fruits from the surrounding area. The fruitful land around the city serves as a foundation for this sweet success. The photo also highlights another significant aspect of Dundee's heritage - shipbuilding. Captain Scott's renowned vessel "Discovery" was constructed in local shipyards on Tayside specifically for his monumental Antarctic expedition in 1901. Recently restored and now displayed as a tourist attraction in dry dock within the city, this iconic ship stands as a testament to Dundee's maritime prowess. With chimney stacks towering above houses and cranes dotting the skyline, this image encapsulates both past and present elements of life in Scotland's vibrant city of Dundee.
