EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Peat-carriers of Loch Maree, Scotland" takes us back in time to the 19th century. The image showcases a group of hardworking individuals known as peat-carriers, who were an integral part of Scottish rural life during this era. The scene is set against the stunning backdrop of Loch Maree, with its tranquil waters and majestic mountains towering in the distance. These carriers are depicted going about their daily task of transporting peat from the boggy moorlands to their homes or nearby villages. Clad in traditional Scottish attire, these men and women exhibit strength and resilience as they shoulder heavy baskets filled with peat on their backs. Their determined expressions tell tales of a tough existence but also hint at a deep connection to their land and heritage. This engraving was originally created for Robert Brown's book "The World Its Cities and Peoples" published by Cassell in approximately 1885. Thanks to digital restoration techniques, we can now appreciate this historical artwork with enhanced clarity. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported into a bygone era where manual labor intertwined harmoniously with nature's beauty. It serves as a poignant reminder of the industrious spirit that shaped Scotland's rural communities centuries ago.
