EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures the essence of Union Street, a bustling and historic thoroughfare in Aberdeen, Scotland. The image, taken by renowned artist CM Dixon in the 1960s, showcases the street's grandeur and significance. Built with exquisite Aberdeen Granite, this major road was designed in the early 19th century to alleviate congestion on surrounding streets. Union Street owes its name to the Acts of Union 1800, symbolizing its importance as a unifying force within the city. However, its construction came at a great cost - nearly bankrupting Aberdeen due to ambitious plans proposed by Charles Abercrombie. Nevertheless, it stands today as an engineering marvel and testament to urban planning. In this vibrant snapshot of daily life on Union Street during that era, we see a colorful scene filled with activity. A learner driver cautiously navigates their way through traffic while pedestrians cross at zebra crossings marked on the road. Buses transport people across town amidst a backdrop of stunning granite buildings. The photograph not only captures architectural beauty but also provides insight into Scottish culture and transportation history. It is evident that Union Street served as both a vital artery for commerce and an integral part of community life. CM Dixon's skillful composition brings out every detail - from the vivid colors of clothing worn by passersby to the intricate lane markings on this iconic street. This remarkable piece serves as a timeless reminder of Aberdeen's rich heritage and enduring charm.
