EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Edinburgh in 1951. The image captures a mesmerizing aerial view of Fountainbridge, located in the Merchiston area of Midlothian, Scotland. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details that unfold before us. In the foreground, an imposing factory stands tall, its chimneys billowing smoke into the sky. This industrial marvel serves as a testament to Edinburgh's rich manufacturing heritage during this era. Adjacent to it lies a bustling railway track, with trains chugging along their designated paths, connecting people and places. Beyond these man-made structures lies a serene meadow park bathed in sunlight. Its lush greenery provides respite from the urban landscape surrounding it—a tranquil oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The National Air Photograph Survey conducted by RAF offers us an extraordinary perspective on this vibrant cityscape frozen in time. It allows us to appreciate how much has changed over the years while also recognizing elements that have remained constant throughout history. As we delve into this remarkable photograph print from Royal Commission on The Ancient And Historical Monuments Of Scotland, let us take a moment to reflect on Edinburgh's evolution and cherish its enduring beauty captured through this lens—preserving memories for generations to come.
