Description: "The Citie of Edinburgh from the South" (detail) by Wenceslas Hollar (1670). Some artistic licence has been used. For example, no tenements are visible on the north side of the High Street where the slope descends steeply to the Nor Loch. Heriot's Hospital stands east (rather than west) of Potterow Port.
