EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the enchanting beauty of Isle of Arran's Whiting Bay during the Victorian period, as captured in this exquisite lantern slide from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, available at Mary Evans Prints Online. The serene, shingle beach is dotted with picturesque cottages, their whitewashed walls gleaming in the sunlight. Sailboats gracefully bob in the crystal-clear waters, their sails billowing gently in the breeze. In the distance, the rugged cliffs rise majestically, their ancient stones weathered by the elements. The Victorian era, marked by the reign of Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901, was a time of significant social, cultural, and technological change in Scotland and beyond. This photograph, taken during the Edwardian period, the early part of the 20th century, offers a rare glimpse into the past, when life moved at a slower pace, and the natural world held a special allure. The vintage image, with its soft focus and warm tones, invites us to imagine the simple pleasures of a bygone era. The absence of modern conveniences, such as cars and telephones, adds to the sense of tranquility and isolation. The lantern slide, a popular form of visual entertainment during the Victorian era, would have been projected onto a screen using a magic lantern, creating a captivating, larger-than-life experience for viewers. This evocative photograph is not only a testament to the rich history of Isle of Arran but also a reminder of the enduring power of photography to transport us to another time and place.
