EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Craigs Plan of the New Streets and Squares intended for the City of Edinburgh" takes us back to 19th century Scotland. The image showcases a meticulously detailed map that was originally created as an illustration for Cassells Old and New Edinburgh in approximately 1885. The print offers a glimpse into the historical evolution of this iconic city, revealing its ambitious plans for expansion and urban development. With its intricate network of streets and squares, it provides a visual representation of the vision held by Craig, the mastermind behind this grand plan. As we explore this enchanting artwork further, we are transported to a time when Edinburgh was on the cusp of transformation. The bustling streets depicted here hint at the vibrant energy that must have filled these newly designed spaces. With every line carefully etched onto paper, we can almost feel ourselves walking through these historic streets, imagining what life would have been like during this era. It serves as a reminder that cities are ever-evolving organisms shaped by human ingenuity and ambition. Preserved within private collections today, this digitally cleaned image allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such engravings and their invaluable role in documenting our shared history.
