EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Edinburgh after Flodden" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a poignant moment in Scottish history. The print, part of a private collection, showcases the talent and skill of the English School. The image is an illustration from "Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers" a renowned collection of ballads, poems, and verses by William Edmonstoune Aytoun. This particular edition was published in 1863 by William Blackwood and features beautiful illustrations by Joseph Noel Paton and Waller H Paton. The scene depicted here portrays Edinburgh in the aftermath of the Battle of Flodden. The devastating battle took place in 1513 between Scotland and England during the reign of King James IV. It resulted in a significant loss for Scotland as many noble Scots lost their lives on that fateful day. Through this digitally cleaned image, we can appreciate both the historical significance and artistic mastery behind this engraving. The attention to detail brings life to every element within it – from the architecture of Edinburgh's buildings to its somber atmosphere. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded not only of Scotland's turbulent past but also its resilience and enduring spirit. It serves as a powerful reminder that art has the ability to transport us through time, connecting us with stories long gone yet forever etched into our collective memory.
