Old Photograph King Duncan Room Cawdor Castle Scotland

Old photograph of the King Duncan room in Cawdor Castle located ten miles East of Inverness, Scotland. The room contains a four poster bed, bell pulls, a table and occasional chairs. The mural around the fireplace depicts scenes from Shakespeare's play Macbeth, in which King Duncan elevates Macbeth to Thane of Cawdor, only to be murdered in his bedroom by his host at Cawdor Castle. However, Macbeth died in 1052, several centuries before the present castle was built.
