EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the mid-19th century, offering a glimpse into the grandeur of The Ancient Royal Palace of Holyrood in Edinburgh, Scotland. Standing proudly amidst its surroundings, this architectural marvel has witnessed centuries of history unfold within its walls. Originally founded as a monastery in 1128, the palace later became the cherished residence of Scottish kings and queens from the 15th century onwards. However, tragedy struck when Oliver Cromwell and his troops visited Edinburgh in 1650, resulting in a devastating fire that reduced much of Holyroodhouse to ashes. The image showcases the palace's majestic exterior after it was rebuilt during Charles II's reign. Its impressive structure stands tall against a picturesque landscape. In front of Holyroodhouse, we witness a military parade taking place - an intriguing moment frozen in time. This enchanting engraving captures not only the architectural beauty but also provides insight into historical events that unfolded around this royal residence. Preserved by Reed Co Publishers and brought to life by The Print Collector, this monochrome masterpiece offers viewers an opportunity to connect with Scotland's rich heritage.
