EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant moment in Scottish history - the Procession uncovering before the sons of Burns in 1844. In this solemn ceremony at the Burns monument in Alloway, Scotland, the three sons of renowned Scottish poet Robert Burns and his patron Lord Eglintoun pay their respects by removing their hats. The monument itself is an impressive Grecian-style temple, designed by Sir Thomas Hamilton Junior. This engraving from the "Illustrated London News" provides a glimpse into this historic event that honors one of Scotland's most beloved literary figures. Known as the Bard of Ayrshire or Ploughman Poet, Robert Burns holds a special place in British culture. The image showcases not only the reverence shown towards Burns but also highlights architectural beauty with its intricate details and grandeur. The presence of Lord Eglintoun, who served as both Lord Lieutenant of Ireland and Earl of Winton, adds to the significance of this procession. As we gaze upon this photograph print captured by an unknown creator, we are transported back to 19th-century Scotland where tradition meets artistry. It serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since his time, Robert Burns' legacy continues to be celebrated and cherished by generations worldwide.
