EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a Pictish horseman carved on a slab in Meigle, Perthshire, Scotland. The intricate stone sculpture depicts an equestrian figure, skillfully crafted by an unknown artist from centuries past. The Picts were an ancient people who inhabited what is now modern-day Scotland during the Late Iron Age and Early Medieval periods. Their artistic legacy can be seen in various carvings and symbols found throughout the region. This particular carving stands as a testament to their rich cultural heritage. The horseman's strong presence is captured beautifully in this photograph, with every detail of his mounted form meticulously preserved for posterity. The rider sits confidently atop his steed, exuding power and grace as they traverse through time. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a bygone era when horses played a vital role in transportation and warfare. It serves as a reminder of the deep connection between humans and animals throughout history. Meigle itself holds great significance as one of Scotland's most important early Christian sites, boasting numerous intricately carved stones like this one. This print not only captures the essence of Scottish artistry but also invites us to delve into the mysteries and stories hidden within these ancient relics
