Description

This fascinating compilation of early Edinburgh photographs takes us on a tour of Scotland’s historic capital city, but moderately than picturing the historic scenes dating back to the 1850s within the traditional sepia and black and white monochrome, new realism is given here by reproducing the images in full colour. We will due to this fact explore not just a few of Edinburgh’s famous landmarks, such as the tourist hub of the Royal Mile, but also less steadily pictured aspects of the city, including its street characters, local markets, shops and theatres. A city blended into the countryside, with Castle Rock at its epicentre, the marriage between nature’s sculpture and man’s architecture in Edinburgh is captured beautifully on this unique collection. Mainly sourced from ancient albums and private collections, Lost Edinburgh in Colour unites a wealth of rare and unpublished images to reveal that the Edinburgh of a century and more ago was once as colourful and vibrant a city as it’s within the present day.
