Mar Lodge, the Highland Residence of the Duke and Duchess of Fife, recently destroyed by Fire
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a haunting scene from the 19th century - Mar Lodge, once a grand Highland residence belonging to the Duke and Duchess of Fife, now reduced to ruins by a devastating fire. The image is taken by an English photographer whose name remains unknown but has left behind this powerful testament to history. The flames engulfing Mar Lodge are fierce and unforgiving, leaving no trace of its former glory. The destruction is evident in every detail captured in this monochromatic composition. It serves as a reminder that even the most opulent structures can succumb to nature's wrath. Intriguingly, amidst the chaos stands Sir Frederick Leighton alongside the Duke and Duchess of Fife. Their expressions reveal a mix of sadness and determination as they depart for Braemar - perhaps seeking solace or planning their next move after such an immense loss. This poignant illustration was featured in The Album, A Journal of Photographs of Men, Women, and Events of the Day in 1895 (Ingram). Its inclusion speaks volumes about its significance during that time period. As we gaze upon this historic photograph today, it transports us back to an era long gone but not forgotten. It reminds us that even our grandest achievements are vulnerable to unforeseen circumstances - yet resilience prevails as we rebuild from ashes into something new.
