EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Aberdeen Illustrated" takes us back to the vibrant city of Aberdeen in the 19th century. The print showcases a bustling scene that captures the essence of this historic Scottish town. The eye is immediately drawn to the impressive architecture of the Duke of Cumberland Library, standing proudly on one side. Its grandeur perfectly complements the elegant Victoria Bridge spanning over River Dee in the background. The bridge serves as a connection between two sides of Aberdeen, symbolizing unity and progress. Inhabited by hardworking locals, we catch glimpses of daily life along Guest Row. Herring cleaners can be seen diligently going about their work, showcasing an important industry for which Aberdeen was renowned during this period. Further into the image lies Kings College Chapel, a magnificent structure with its roots dating back to 1746. This iconic landmark adds depth and historical significance to this already picturesque scene. As we take in this enchanting engraving, it becomes clear that it encapsulates not only the physical beauty but also the spirit and heritage of Aberdeen. It invites us to imagine what life was like during those times - a thriving city filled with ambition and cultural richness. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both architectural marvels and everyday moments frozen in time within Scotland's beloved Aberdeen.
