EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back in time to the year 1640, where we find ourselves standing before the magnificent Greyfriars Church in Edinburgh. The English School of the 19th century has masterfully captured this iconic Scottish landmark, showcasing its grandeur and historical significance. Greyfriars Church stands tall against a backdrop of rolling hills and a cloudy sky, exuding an air of solemnity and reverence. Its Gothic architecture is beautifully detailed, with intricate spires reaching towards the heavens. The church's stone facade bears witness to centuries of history, each weathered crevice telling tales of devotion and resilience. As we gaze upon this digitally cleaned image from "The Scots Worthies" by Blackie (1879), we are transported to a time when this sacred place played a central role in Scotland's religious landscape. It served as a sanctuary for worshippers seeking solace and spiritual guidance during tumultuous times. This print not only captures the physical beauty of Greyfriars Church but also serves as a window into Scotland's rich heritage. It reminds us that beneath its architectural splendor lies stories of faith, courage, and unwavering determination. Bridgeman Images allows us to experience this slice of history through their fine art collection. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past as they connect us with our roots and inspire us to appreciate the enduring legacy left behind by those who came before us.
