EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Alford" takes us on a journey back in time to the 19th century. Captured by James Porter, this image is part of his collection showcasing the views of Aberdeen and its surrounding district. The photograph depicts a scene from a bygone era, where coaches were the primary means of transportation for passengers. The coach, with its elegant design and sturdy build, stands proudly as it awaits hitching to its coupling. This mode of transport was an essential lifeline connecting people across Scotland. In the background, we catch a glimpse of a small railway line that symbolizes progress and modernity creeping into this picturesque landscape. It serves as a reminder that even in those times, technology was rapidly advancing. The setting itself exudes tranquility and beauty; rolling hills stretch out before us while Pictish influences can be seen in the architecture dotting the landscape. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also provides insight into Scottish history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured over a century ago, we are transported back to an era when simplicity reigned supreme and nature's majesty dominated our surroundings. It is through images like these that we can appreciate how far we have come while cherishing our rich cultural heritage.
