EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Montrose, Scotland, captured in the early 1900s. The photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to a bygone era, filled with the charm and character of a Victorian or Edwardian town. Montrose, located on the northeast coast of Scotland, is depicted in all its glory, with its picturesque harbor and imposing 17th-century Montrose Basilica towering over the scene. The image is further enhanced by the use of a lantern slide, adding to its vintage appeal. The photograph captures the essence of daily life in Montrose during this period. Horse-drawn carts and carriages line the cobblestone streets, while men in suits and women in long dresses can be seen going about their business or enjoying a leisurely stroll. The town's bustling harbor is a hive of activity, with fishing boats and merchant vessels coming and going. The Montrose Basilica, also known as the Episcopal Church of St. Mary Magdalene, is a prominent feature of the photograph. Dating back to the 17th century, the church is a testament to Montrose's rich history and religious heritage. Its grand architecture and intricate details are a sight to behold, making it a must-visit destination for history buffs and photographers alike. This photograph is a precious reminder of Montrose's past, offering a glimpse into the lives of its people and the town's unique character during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. It is a must-have for anyone with an interest in Scottish history, vintage photography, or simply those who appreciate the beauty of the past.
