EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases the elegant Shooting Lodge at Strather-Wick, Inverness, as it appeared in 1867. Commissioned by J. Masson Esq., this architectural masterpiece was designed by George Alfred Deans and featured in his "Series of Selected Designs for Country Residences, Entrance Lodges, Farm Offices, Cottages, etc." published by Longman. The Shooting Lodge, a quintessential example of English domestic architecture, exudes a sense of grandeur and sophistication. Its symmetrical design is characterized by the use of local materials, such as the rough-hewn stone and slate roofing, which blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings. The central tower, with its conical roof and ornate finial, adds a striking visual element to the composition. The lodge's entrance is marked by a pair of tall, arched windows, flanked by pilasters and topped with a decorative pediment. The windows allow ample natural light to flood the interior, while also providing a clear view of the surrounding landscape. The main door, adorned with intricate carvings and a wrought-iron knocker, invites guests to enter. The lodge's exterior also features a number of smaller windows, each with their unique character, adding depth and interest to the overall design. The chimneys, with their ornate pots and decorative details, speak to the lodge's function as a gathering place for hunters and their guests. This photograph print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when country estates were the epitome of luxury and refinement. The Shooting Lodge at Strather-Wick, Inverness, remains a testament to the enduring beauty and elegance of English domestic architecture.
