David Octavius Hill's The Cannon 'Mons Meg' at Edinburgh Castle is a scene from the earliest days of photography — the great medieval siege gun on its rampart, a soldier of the Royal Scots standing quietly beside it, all held in the soft, grained warmth of an early calotype. There's history in it twice over: the old cannon, and the young art that pictured it. For a hallway or a study, it brings a hushed, sepia calm and a real sense of time held still.

Printed to be lived with — giclée on gallery-grade archival paper, so the colour stays true for years.

  • Giclée print on smooth, acid-free 220gsm gallery-grade fine-art paper
  • Matte finish, faithful colour
  • Portrait, landscape and square sizes available
  • Made to order and printed just for you

Made our finished basement

Our finished basement had been half finished for a year and this was the piece that closed it out.

ordering another one soon

I sent a question about care the day it arrived and got a real answer from a real person. My teenage son asked if he could have it for his room, which is unheard of. Support answered my email the same afternoon with an actual answer…

My mom has been asking for the link since the day she saw it. Scale was my worry, and The Cannon 'Mons Meg' at Edinburgh Castle got exactly the room it needed at this size. I have zero notes.

Better than the photos

I unwrapped this in the kitchen and my daughter asked if we could get another one. The detail is much finer up close than the product photos suggest. Money well spent, without question.

worth every dollar

We ordered the poster for the finished basement and ended up moving it somewhere everyone can see it.

Delivery took two weeks longer than the site suggested, though nothing was damaged. I bought it for The Cannon 'Mons Meg' at Edinburgh Castle and I am glad I did. It earns its place in the guest bedroom…

The soft gray is perfect

I bought this for my first apartment and it made the place feel like mine. I grew up with The Cannon 'Mons Meg' at Edinburgh Castle on a calendar in my grandmother's kitchen and this is a far better version. The veining across the poster is dramatic without being busy. Already deciding where the next one goes.

Better in person.

We ordered the poster for the nursery and ended up moving it somewhere everyone can see it.
