EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Libberton Wynd from the Cowgate in early 19th century Edinburgh, Scotland. Taken by Walter Geikie in 1946, this image showcases a steep street lined with charming houses and buildings that stand proudly against the city's hilly landscape. The bustling scene is filled with people going about their daily lives, adding a touch of liveliness to the historical setting. Libberton Wynd holds a significant place in British geography and Scottish history. Its architectural beauty combined with its steep location makes it an intriguing landmark from the 19th century. This etching-like photograph provides us with a glimpse into the past, reminding us of how life used to be during that era. The print is part of "Life Among the Scots" by Janet Adam Smith, published by Collins in London in 1946.
