EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic St James Centre in Edinburgh, captured in the year 1972. Standing proudly against a backdrop of Waverley Station, this architectural marvel is a testament to the rich history and grandeur of Scotland's capital city. The image, sourced from the esteemed Aerofilms Archive at the National Archives, offers a unique aerial perspective that allows viewers to appreciate the intricate details and scale of this magnificent structure. The photograph captures St James Centre facing southeast, perfectly encapsulating its strategic location within Edinburgh's bustling heart. Its proximity to Waverley Station adds an element of dynamism and movement as trains come and go, connecting people from all corners of Scotland and beyond. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how much has changed over the years while also highlighting elements that have remained constant. The North Bridge gracefully stretches across the frame, acting as both a physical link between different parts of Edinburgh and symbolizing connections between past and present. Preserved by the Royal Commission on The Ancient And Historical Monuments Of Scotland, this print not only documents an important moment in time but also invites us to reflect on our shared heritage. It encourages us to appreciate how architecture can shape cities' identities while reminding us that these structures are more than just buildings; they are witnesses to countless stories unfolding beneath their roofs.
