EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the haunting beauty of history, this print showcases Findlater Castle near Sandend in Aberdeenshire. Built by the Ogilvie family in 1455, this magnificent castle witnessed its fair share of turmoil throughout the centuries. In 1562, it became a battleground during the Gordon rebellion when Mary, Queen of Scots laid siege to its walls. Perched dramatically on a cliff-top, these once majestic buildings now stand abandoned and weathered by time. The remnants tell tales of grandeur and resilience that have faded into whispers carried by the wind. It is as if you can almost hear echoes of past lives within these crumbling stones. The photographer from Hulton Archive has masterfully captured every intricate detail, emphasizing the castle's architectural splendor against a backdrop of rugged cliffs and crashing waves. The contrast between light and shadow adds an air of mystery to this already captivating scene. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even great fortresses can succumb to the passage of time. It invites us to reflect upon our own transience while marveling at the enduring legacy left behind by those who came before us.
