EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Thomas Hosmer Shepherd takes us back to the early 19th century in Edinburgh, Scotland. The image showcases the grandeur of the Excise Office located in Drummond Place. With its imposing architecture and intricate details, this building stands as a testament to the city's rich history. The Excise Office, depicted here with utmost precision and skill, was an integral part of Edinburgh's bustling urban landscape during that time. Its significance cannot be overstated, as it played a crucial role in regulating and collecting taxes on goods such as alcohol and tobacco. Shepherd's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this historical gem. From the ornate windows adorned with delicate carvings to the impressive columns that support its facade, each element contributes to creating a sense of awe-inspiring beauty. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection, we are transported back in time; we can almost hear the echoes of footsteps on cobblestone streets and imagine horse-drawn carriages passing by. It is through artworks like these that we can truly grasp the essence of Edinburgh's past and immerse ourselves in its vibrant history. This engraving serves as a reminder not only of how far we have come but also how important it is to preserve our architectural heritage for future generations.
