EDITORS COMMENTS
The Square and Monument in Dunkeld, Perth, Perthshire, Scotland, is a picturesque and historic scene that has captured the hearts of many visitors and locals alike. This stunning photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the harmony between nature and architecture, as the ancient monument stands proudly amidst the vibrant greenery of the town's central square. The Monument, also known as the Dunkeld Cathedral Tower or the Black Watch Monument, is a 15th-century structure that once formed part of the Dunkeld Cathedral. It now stands as a solitary reminder of the past, having survived the destruction of the cathedral during the Reformation. The monument is a tribute to the Duke of Albany and the Earl of Mar, who were both executed on the orders of King James V in 1544. The Square, surrounded by quaint shops, cafes, and houses, is the heart of Dunkeld. It is a popular gathering place for locals and tourists, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of the town. The Square is also home to various events throughout the year, including the annual Dunkeld and Birnam Highland Games and the Dunkeld Christmas Market. The photograph captures the essence of Dunkeld, with its historic monument standing tall against a backdrop of lush greenery and the gentle flow of the River Tay in the foreground. The Square and Monument are a testament to the town's rich history and its commitment to preserving its past while embracing the present. This photograph is a must-have for anyone who appreciates the beauty of Scotland and the history of its towns and villages.
