EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Victorian era, capturing the essence of Jeanie Deans Cottage in St. Leonards, Edinburgh. The image, sourced from a Royal Family album dating back to 1886, showcases the quaint charm of this historical dwelling. Jeanie Deans Cottage holds significant literary importance as it was home to the fictional character Jeanie Deans, created by renowned author Sir Walter Scott in his novel "Heart of Midlothian". This picturesque cottage served as her residence within the story's narrative. Although time has taken its toll on this cherished piece of Scottish history, with its demolition occurring in the 1960s, this photograph allows us to appreciate its architectural beauty and cultural significance. Its absence today only adds to our fascination with this lost gem. Preserved within Historic England Photo Library's collection, this image invites viewers into a world where imagination meets reality. It serves as a reminder that even though physical structures may fade away over time, their impact can endure through literature and storytelling. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an era filled with romance and intrigue. We find ourselves longing for a glimpse into Jeanie Deans' life within these walls—a testament to both Scotland's rich heritage and Sir Walter Scott's enduring legacy.
