Can you name shop beneath this beautiful Edinburgh building …
Can you tell me where in Edinburgh I have sketched?
Your comment will not show up until I reveal the answer tomorrow morning. Get your answer in before midnight tonight and I will pick a random winner from all correct entries by this time tomorrow.
This week’s prize is a screen printed tea towel featuring my illustration of Victoria Street.
Keep an eye on my facebook and twitter feeds for clues if they are needed later today, and remember you can also see my weekly competition in the printed version of the Edinburgh Evening News each Monday.
Keep looking up and noticing the beauty in the everyday, you never know where I will be sketching next!
My Edinburgh sketched merchandise and high quality prints are available on my Etsy shop and I am available for commissions too. Email me at contact@www.edinburghsketcher.com for more details.
Great Scott shop
According to Google, the sign over the windows says
“Great Scot”
However, the 3D satellite image appears to show Clintons as in cards. I have no idea what one might see from across the street now.
In my day, it was Dolcis and, long before even my time, it was a Crawfords tea room.
It is a listed building, designed by Hippolyte J Blanc, 1886-8, as a tea room, so it may well be a tea room or cafe again soon.
Great Scot
Hello There
I believe this week’s great sketch is Great Scot on Princes Street.
Love this weekly quiz.
All the best,
Linda
We believe it is on Princes Street, the shop which is now Great Scot, I think.
