and is now a home to around 600 undergraduates, 300 graduates, and over

..................With a similar
entrepreneurial spirit, in a bid to extend his initial portraits into the realm
of greater production, Wilson
had a stroke of marketing genius. In 1857 he created a montage of one-hundred
and one of Aberdeen’s established middle class,
identifying the who’s who of Aberdeen
society, and simultaneously drawing attention to himself, to his clients and
their elevated status. It sold extremely well, and in a single stroke this new
promotion publicly cemented his relationship with existing clients while using
their patronage and image as advertising, thus compelling other members of
society, wishing for similar recognition, to visit his studio in the hopes of
being included in the next year’s edition...........

Wilson went on to build up a substantial
business as a publisher of topographic views, principally of Scotland, where he
travelled to Braemar, the Trossachs, the Falls of Clyde and many of the wilder
parts of Scotland. His English output is small compared with his Scottish
views, but Wilson made several journeys into England.
