EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Scottish Gathering at Stamford Bridge" takes us back to a vibrant and spirited event in history. Created by Horace Morehen in 1884, this print captures the essence of a traditional Scottish gathering with its array of activities and participants. The scene is set at Stamford Bridge, where the air is filled with excitement and anticipation. The Black Watch bandmaster leads his musicians as they play lively tunes that echo through the crowd. Tug of war teams strain against each other, showcasing their strength and determination. In one corner, we see the pipe major skillfully playing his bagpipes, adding an unmistakable Scottish flair to the atmosphere. Nearby stands the secretary diligently organizing the various games taking place throughout the day. From throwing hammers to performing Highland flings, every aspect of Scottish culture is celebrated here. Participants engage in tossing cabers with precision while others put their strength to test by putting stones or engaging in friendly competitions like Mr W Ross or William Stark. Amongst all these festivities, notable figures such as Major Colin Mackenzie and Dr Farquhar Matheson can be spotted enjoying themselves alongside Queens Piper and Prince of Wales Piper. This enchanting engraving immortalizes a momentous occasion where camaraderie meets tradition. It serves as a reminder of Scotland's rich heritage and its ability to bring people together through shared experiences.
