An album of 100 photographs, entitled Fragments of Edinburgh in the Olden Time is the largest known printed work of Thomas Keith (1827-1895), a Scottish surgeon who became involved with photography through his family and its milieu of scientists and clergy. Between 1852 and 1856, Keith interpreted old Edinburgh with topographical care and sensibility. His photographs of seventeenth-century memorials to Scottish heroes and martyrs in Edinburgh’s Greyfriars Churchyard and his record of medieval Iona, the earliest Christian community in Scotland, show an antiquarian’s respect along with a romantic’s awe for the Scottish past.
