Hear about Edinburgh's Georgian skyline and the origins of the panorama

Join historian and curator Elizabeth Quarmby Lawrence for a talk about Edinburgh’s Georgian skyline and the origins of the panorama and its immersive appeal in the late 18th and 19th centuries. Drinks will be provided after the talk, with the opportunity to discuss the panorama with Elizabeth and other guests.

This event is part of the Panorama programme, which takes inspiration from the origins of the panorama to explore how we see, move through and understand the city today.
