EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1898, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Aberdeen, Scotland. The image showcases "The Municipal Buildings" an architectural marvel that stands proudly on Union Street. With its intricate design and imposing presence, this structure is a testament to the city's grandeur. In the foreground, we see Castlegate adorned with the Mercat Cross, a stunning creation by John Montgomery in 1686. This ancient monument adds an air of mystique to the scene as it stands tall against time's passage. As we take in this aerial view from above, we are transported to another era where horse-drawn carriages traverse bustling streets. The photograph captures a snapshot of daily life during that period - men and women going about their day along Market Square while children play nearby. The sun casts long shadows on granite buildings, adding depth and texture to this historical vista. This enchanting image was featured in "Our Own Country". Volume III - a literary work published by Cassell and Company Ltd. , showcasing Britain's most remarkable landmarks. Although created by an unknown artist, their talent shines through as they expertly capture Aberdeen's charm. As we admire this piece of artistry frozen in time, let us appreciate how it encapsulates both the beauty of Victorian architecture and the spirit of Scottish heritage. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these historic landmarks continue to captivate visitors from around the world who seek glimpses into our past.
