Hebridean Sunset
12th March 1955: The cliffs of Eigg and the peaks of the Isle of Skye seen at sunset from the Scottish coast at Mallaig. Mallaig is the westerly point of the Road to the Isles. No more than six miles from the mainland, at the time this photograph was taken islanders could cross the water on the daily ferry. A road bridge built in the 1990s now makes that crossing quicker and easier.

Hebridean Sunset - A Captivating Glimpse into Scotland's Majestic Coastline
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This stunning print captures the ethereal beauty of a Hebridean sunset on the 12th of March, 1955. The cliffs of Eigg stand tall against the backdrop of the Isle of Skye, creating a breathtaking silhouette that is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Taken from the Scottish coast at Mallaig, this photograph showcases nature's artistry at its finest. At that time, islanders relied on daily ferries to cross over to the mainland, with Mallaig serving as their westerly point along the renowned Road to the Isles. However, in more recent years, a road bridge has been constructed for quicker and easier access. The tranquility exuded by this image is palpable; there are no people present to disturb or distract from nature's grandeur. The landscape unfolds before our eyes with mountain peaks reaching towards an expansive sky filled with captivating clouds. As we gaze upon this archival piece by Kurt Hutton, we are transported back in time to an era where simplicity reigned supreme. The solitary house perched on the shore serves as a reminder of human existence amidst such natural splendor. This evocative print encapsulates Scotland's rugged charm and invites us to immerse ourselves in its timeless allure. It is a testament to both artistic expression and our deep connection with nature—a true masterpiece that will captivate any admir
