EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history of Stirling Castle, where people have sought refuge for centuries. This 1996 Scotrail poster transports us to a bygone era, showcasing the castle's grandeur against a breathtaking sunset backdrop. Perched atop a hill in Stirlingshire, Scotland, this medieval stronghold has witnessed countless tales of triumph and turmoil. It was within these ancient walls that Mary, Queen of Scots received her coronation in 1543, adding an extra layer of regal allure to its already impressive heritage. The poster's artistic rendering captures the essence of Stirling Castle at dusk – its imposing silhouette standing tall against the fading light. The warm hues of orange and pink paint the sky as if paying homage to centuries past. As we gaze upon this print from NRM/Pictorial Collection at the National Railway Museum, we can't help but feel drawn into its enchanting narrative. We imagine ourselves stepping through time's portal and finding solace within these stone walls – escaping from marauding hordes seeking shelter or simply seeking respite from our modern lives. Let this evocative image transport you to another world; let it inspire your wanderlust for Scottish castles steeped in history. Discover why generations continue to flock to Stirling Castle - not only for its architectural marvels but also for its ability to ignite our imagination with stories untold.
