Full description
This is a my unique original sketch of historical image in high quality pencil.
This sketch captures a historical moment at Castlegate, Aberdeen, in the early 20th century.
At that time, the area was a major hub for the city's tram network, which provided essential public transport until the traams were phased out in the 1950s.The sketch vividly depicts the electric trams that once crissscrossed the city streets, reflecting Aberdeen's vibrant urban life during this period.
At the upper end of Castlegate stands The Salvation Army Citadel, an effective castellated mansion, on the site of the medieval Aberdeen Castle. Castlegate was named after the site of the castle gates until their destruction in 1308.
At the center stands the statue of George Gordon, 5th Duke of Gordon, erected in 1832 to commemorate his contributions to both military and public life. The statue, surrounded by a fountain, was a prominent feature in Castlegate, often serving as a gathering place for citizens.
This sketch with frame and the size is 20cm square and the image size is 18cm square.
Designed by Siu Nin Law in Aberdeen
