of the Lost is a contemporary pilgrimage from Huntly in Scotland to Venice,
Italy, undertaken by artist Anthony Schrag. Anthony left Huntly mid-June and
has followed a route created from fragments of the Pennine Way and the Via
Francigena, going over the Swiss Alps and into Italy. After three and a half
months of continuous walking, Anthony will arrive in Venice on 1 October.

Best wishes from rainy Huntly.
