Cattle In River
July 1927: Cattle in the River Dee at Glenlochar, Castle Douglas, Dumfries and Galloway. There is evidence of an Iron Age settlement on artificial islands in Carlingwark Loch at Castle Douglas, but the town as it is today was founded in 1789 by a Scotsman, William Douglas, who had made his fortune in America and returned to make Castle Douglas a successful cattle market town.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Cattle In River" takes us back to the picturesque landscape of Glenlochar in Castle Douglas, Dumfries and Galloway. The year is July 1927, and we are transported to a time when cattle roamed freely along the banks of the majestic River Dee. The image showcases a scene that reflects both Scotland's rich history and its deep connection with nature. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that there is more than meets the eye. Beyond the beauty of these grazing animals lies evidence of an Iron Age settlement on artificial islands in Carlingwark Loch at Castle Douglas. Delving into local lore, we discover that Castle Douglas owes its existence to William Douglas—a Scotsman who had amassed his fortune across the Atlantic before returning home. In 1789, he founded this bustling town with a vision to establish it as a thriving cattle market hub. Alfred Hind Robinson skillfully captures this momentous blend of history and natural splendor through his lens. His panoramic composition allows us to immerse ourselves fully in this timeless Scottish landscape while appreciating the significance of human intervention within it. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph from Fine Art Storehouse, let us marvel at how our past intertwines with our present—a testament to Scotland's enduring spirit and its harmonious relationship with its surroundings.
