Product Description
Product Description
Scotland is justly famed as a land of colour and romance, but its image - in the eyes of the outsider - is often one of cliches. Tartans, mountains, lochs, gloomy castles and humble crofts make up the Scotland of the tourist brochures. Yet while these have their place in the total fabric, Scotland from the inside offers a tapestry of infinite variety, unexpected and continually dazzling. This splendid book with nearly 300 richly-coloured photographs looks behind the facades of great houses, small castles and inner-city dwellings. With the exception of Mackintosh's masterpiece at Helensburgh, now owned by the National Trust for Scotland, all the properties included are private homes. The result is a fascinating insight into the treasures and tastes of Scotland, photographed by Fritz von der Schulenburg with his well-known flair and discrimination. The styles range from traditional to modern, encompassing all those features that are unique to the Scottish way of life.
