EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "View of Glasgow from the Fir Park, about the year 1690" takes us on a journey back in time to the vibrant city of Glasgow in Scotland. Created by John Slezer in the 17th century, this print offers a glimpse into the historical landscape and architectural beauty that once adorned this bustling Scottish metropolis. The image showcases an expansive view of Glasgow as seen from Fir Park. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he meticulously captures every element of the cityscape. From towering spires and grand churches to quaint cottages nestled along winding streets, each building tells its own story. The scene exudes a sense of tranquility with lush greenery surrounding the city walls. It transports us to an era when horse-drawn carriages traversed cobblestone streets and people went about their daily lives amidst this picturesque setting. This engraving holds immense historical significance as it was later included in Robert Stuart's book, "Views and Notices of Glasgow in Former Times" published in 1848. Preserved through time, it allows us to appreciate how much Glasgow has evolved over centuries while still retaining its unique charm. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded of Glasgow's rich heritage and its enduring spirit. It serves as a testament to the resilience and progress that have shaped this great Scottish city throughout history.
