EDITORS COMMENTS
Dryburgh Abbey, located in the Scottish Borders region, stands majestically on the banks of the River Tweed. This stunning photograph, taken around the turn of the 20th century, captures the beauty and grandeur of the ruins, which have been a source of inspiration for visitors for centuries. The Abbey, founded in 1152, was once a significant center of learning and spiritual life in Scotland. However, it was largely destroyed during the Reformation in the 16th century. Despite its ruined state, the Abbey continues to be a popular tourist destination and a reminder of Scotland's rich history. The River Tweed, which flows gently by the Abbey, adds to its picturesque beauty. The tranquil waters reflect the Abbey's ancient walls, creating a serene and reflective atmosphere. The lantern slide, part of the Box 2 Boswell Collection Series of Castles and Abbeys, captures the essence of this scene, transporting us back in time to a period when the Abbey was a thriving center of spiritual and intellectual life. The Scottish Borders region, with its rolling hills, picturesque villages, and historic sites, is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history, culture, and natural beauty. Dryburgh Abbey, with its iconic ruins and stunning riverfront location, is a testament to the region's rich heritage and a reminder of Scotland's fascinating past.
