This Is My Glasgow<p>Of course, in Glasgow, there's another way of separating the two: A road cone fits neatly on the head of a statue, but not necessarily on a sculpture!</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/statue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>statue</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/maryqueenofscots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maryqueenofscots</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/provandslordship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>provandslordship</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/roadcone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>roadcone</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/dukeofwellington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dukeofwellington</span></a></p>
This Is My Glasgow<p>I've often said there's no statue of Mary Queen of Scots in Glasgow, which is true, but there is this sculpture of her on the gates of St Nicholas Gardens behind the Provand's Lordship on Castle Street. So, what makes it a sculpture rather than a statue? Officially, a sculpture is any three dimensional work of art, while a statue is an approximately life-sized and more or less realistic full figure representation of a person or animal.</p><p>Cont./</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/statue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>statue</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/maryqueenofscots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maryqueenofscots</span></a></p>
This Is My Glasgow<p>Queen Mary's Stone on Court Knowe in the Cathcart area of Glasgow. This stone supposedly marks the spot where Mary Queen of Scots watched the Battle of Langside in 1568, where her army was soundly beaten. However, it seems unlikely that this was the actual spot from where she watched the battle as it was close to Cathcart Castle, which was held by a supporter of her opponent, James Stewart, Earl of Moray. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowhistory</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/maryqueenofscots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maryqueenofscots</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/cathcart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cathcart</span></a></p>

Anne FisherA famous <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/StainedGlass?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StainedGlass</a> window, at <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/StGilesCathedral?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StGilesCathedral</a> in <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Edinburgh?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Edinburgh</a>.<br> <br> The window tells the story of the 1570 assassination of the Earl of Moray, who had the ignoble honor of being the first politician to be assassinated by a gun.<br> <br> The top panel shows him getting shot by James Hamilton of Bothwellhaugh (a man who was angry that his family had been evicted from their home by Moray). Hamilton later escaped safely to France, and members of Moray's political enemies (kin to <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/MaryQueenOfScots?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MaryQueenOfScots</a> ) were tried and convicted of taking part in the conspiracy. <br> <br> The bottom panel shows his funeral, officiated by Rev. John Knox (who made an exception to his Protestant Reformationist beliefs in order to speak at the funeral).<br> <br> This window was made in 1881 by James Ballatine and Son.
