EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph print captures a breathtaking view of Balmoral Castle from the driveway, transporting us back in time to the mid-1950s. Nestled in the heart of Scotland, Balmoral Castle was built in 1854 as a summer retreat for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. The castle's grandeur is evident in its imposing clock tower, which stands tall at 100 feet, dominating the landscape. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert fell in love with the Scottish Highlands during their honeymoon in 1848 and decided to build a castle that would allow them to enjoy the natural beauty of the area. The castle was designed by the architect, William Smith, and construction began in 1853. The castle was completed the following year, and the royal family spent many happy summers there. The clock tower, a prominent feature of the castle, was added in 1870, and its bells were rung every day at noon and 6 pm to mark the passing of time. The castle's design is a blend of Scottish baronial and Tudor styles, and its intricate details and grandeur reflect the opulence of the Victorian era. This photograph print offers a unique glimpse into the history of Balmoral Castle and the royal family's connection to Scotland. The image transports us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the beauty of nature was cherished. The castle, with its majestic clock tower, stands as a testament to the rich history and heritage of Scotland.
