EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of Graeme, a proud representative of a Scottish Highland Clan, donning traditional attire in Vol. 1 of "The Highland Clans of Scotland," published in 1923. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases Graeme's deep connection to his heritage as he dons the intricately woven tartan kilt, a symbol of his clan's history and lineage. The kilt is accessorized with a sporran, a traditional pouch worn at the waist, and a sgian-dubh, a small knife worn in the hose. The authenticity of the ensemble is further emphasized by the quillioned brogues, or ghillie brogues, adorned with laces and intricate designs. Graeme's upper body is covered by a plaid, or woollen cloth, draped over a white shirt and a waistcoat. The plaid is fastened at the shoulder with a brooch, known as a brooch of garter, which displays the clan's crest. A ribbon, or sash, is worn diagonally across the chest, securing the plaid in place. Graeme completes his look with a tam o'shanter, a traditional Scottish hat with a pom-pom on top, and a pair of white socks. The photograph not only captures the beauty and intricacy of the traditional Scottish Highland costume but also the deep sense of pride and connection to the past that comes with wearing it. Graeme's confident and regal posture further emphasizes the importance of preserving the rich history and traditions of the Scottish Highland Clans.
