EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting, titled "Dundee from East of Craighead, East Newport, 1865-66" transports us back to the bustling maritime city of Dundee in the late 19th century. Painted by Arthur Lee, a renowned artist of his time, this masterpiece captures the essence of Dundee's thriving shipping industry. The canvas depicts a panoramic view of the city from an elevated vantage point east of Craighead. The choppy sea dominates the foreground as sail ships and a steamboat navigate through its waters. Their presence signifies the importance of trade and transport in Dundee during this era. Lee's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke. From the intricate rigging on each ship to the vibrant colors that bring life to his composition, he skillfully conveys both movement and stillness within this riverscape scene. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how busy and industrious Dundee was at that moment. The painting serves as a testament to Scotland's rich maritime history and highlights Dundee's significant role as a trading hub. Displayed at The McManus museum in Dundee today, this print allows us to appreciate Lee's artistic talent while also providing us with a glimpse into our past—a reminder of how far we have come since those bustling days on Scotland's riverbanks.
