Thomas Annan was commissioned by the Glasgow Water Works Corporation to document the project of redirecting the waters from Loch Katrine to flow some thirty-five miles into the city of Glasgow - a feat of engineering that took almost twenty years. Annan published his first major work 'The Views of the Line of Loch Katrine Water Works' in 1859 and continued to photograph the evolution of the aqueduct and construction works until completion in 1877. 'Photographic Views of Loch Katrine' was published to chronicle this work and mark the historic completion of the enterprise.
