It makes one place on a map more than simply in a different location to another place on a map. Scotland is no exception to this. From our tartans and traditions, to our writing, music, languages and so much more, the culture that has come to define Scotland has become known around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCringe no more\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince the 1707 Act of Union that took away Scotland's independence, Scots have been taught to dislike, dismiss, or even flat out deny their culture. Known as the Scottish Cringe, this in-built censor manifests in all sorts of ways, often around words such as 'twee' and 'parochial'. Bringing a sense of worth back to Scots through a focus on their Scottish culture is my main aims in creating this art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout this piece\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA port has sat at the mouth of the Water of Leith since around the 12th century. Even though the settlement that grew around it, called Leith, was merged into Edinburgh in 1920, denizens of the area to this day proudly called themselves 'Leithers'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe artwork\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeith's coat of arms was registered with the Lord Lyon in 1889. This secular reworking does away with the clouds of the original, replacing them with the famed sunshine on Leith.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaper size A4, 297x210mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e350gsm smooth white board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrinted in Scotland on FSC® Mixed Sources paper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Stewart Bremner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56462968881538,"sku":"A4-SBC07","price":5.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/0985\/products\/07_5250478c-b2ec-40ce-a4e6-21e4399b469f.jpg?v=1536637513","url":"https:\/\/stewartbremnerprints.com\/products\/leith-persevere-a4-vposter","provider":"Stewart Bremner Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
