This print transports us back to the bustling City Centre of Inverness in 1940. Taken from a unique aerial perspective, it offers a panoramic view of Ballifeary, Inverness and Bona in Inverness-shire, Scotland. The image is oriented towards the northeast, showcasing the city's remarkable landmarks. In the foreground, we see an elegant bridge spanning over the majestic River Ness, its waters reflecting the surrounding buildings. The high street comes alive with activity as people go about their daily routines amidst charming shops and storefronts. Dominating this picturesque scene is none other than Inverness Castle—a symbol of strength and history—standing tall against the backdrop of rolling hills. The photographer responsible for capturing this momentous sight is Ernest Edmund Fresson—an accomplished artist known for his exceptional skills in aerial photography. His Dragon Rapide G-ADAJ aircraft allowed him to capture stunning images like these that offer a rare glimpse into our past. Adding to the allure of this photograph is Inverness Cathedral, standing proudly amidst its surroundings. Its towering spires reach towards the sky while exuding an air of tranquility amidst all the urban hustle below. Preserved by The Royal Commission on The Ancient And Historical Monuments Of Scotland (NCAP), this print serves as a testament to both Fresson's artistry and our collective heritage. It allows us to appreciate how much has changed since 1940 while reminding us that some things remain timeless—the
