EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Victorian Scotland, specifically around the year 1875. The image showcases a serene view of a charming thatched cottage and adjacent farm building nestled near Glen Nevis. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported to an era where simplicity and tranquility reigned supreme. The thatched cottage stands as a testament to traditional Scottish architecture, with its distinctive roof made of straw or reeds. Its rustic charm is further enhanced by the picturesque surroundings; rolling hills and lush greenery enveloping the property create an idyllic setting for rural life. Adjacent to the cottage, we find a humble farm building which likely served as a hub of activity during those times. It was here that hardworking farmers tended to their livestock and stored essential tools necessary for their daily tasks. This print not only captures architectural beauty but also offers us a glimpse into the lives of those who inhabited these structures over a century ago. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when communities relied on each other and nature's bounty for sustenance. Preserved by the Royal Commission on The Ancient And Historical Monuments Of Scotland, this photograph allows us to appreciate our rich heritage while evoking feelings of nostalgia for days gone by.
