EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 18th century showcases "Four Danish Forts, at Glen Elg, in Invernesshire" along with "Two Pictish Hunting Houses". The print is part of a private collection and was originally featured in the book "Ruins and Antient Buildings, in England & Wales" published by Alex Hogg in 1795. The image transports us back to a time of antiquity, revealing the architectural wonders of these ancient structures. The forts stand proudly against the backdrop of Glen Elg in Invernesshire, Scotland. Their fortified walls and ramparts evoke a sense of strength and grandeur. In contrast to the imposing forts, we see two Pictish Hunting Houses nestled amidst nature's beauty. These houses provide insight into the daily lives and habitats of this ancient civilization. Row housing can be observed here as well, showcasing their unique style and design. The engraving captures not only historical significance but also artistic mastery. The attention to detail is evident throughout every line etched on paper by an unknown engraver from that era. As we gaze upon this artwork today, it serves as a reminder of our rich history and heritage. It allows us to appreciate the architectural marvels left behind by our ancestors while also offering glimpses into their way of life through these hunting houses. This print truly encapsulates both artistry and history within its frame.
