The image showcases a distant view of this historic city and its iconic castle, as seen through the skilled engraving work of Henry Raeburn and William Holl. The handcoloured copperplate engraving was created in 1804 for Dr. Robert John Thornton's renowned publication "New Illustration of the Sexual System of Carolus von Linnaeus". This unique collaboration between art and science beautifully combines natural history with landscape representation. Edinburgh's rich cultural heritage is evident in every detail captured within this print. It serves as a testament to Scottish culture, showcasing the enduring spirit and pride that define Scotland. The enchanting scenery evokes a sense of awe and wonderment, inviting viewers to imagine themselves strolling along its cobblestone streets or exploring its ancient landmarks.
