Winter Crofts and Castle Varrich
Painting No. 16
Castle Varrich, symbolic of the wealth and power of the land-owning Mackay clan chiefs; and croft-land, symbolic of hardship and relative poverty, worked by subsistence farmers in more recent years. Two extremes of wealth united in their dependance upon, and respect for, the land. Today, the castle is in ruins and the crofts are no longer viable for traditional use. The rich and poor are still with us, but we are losing that ancient respect for the land that sustains us. Who will comment upon the ruins of our civilisation, and with what words?
