EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph presents Reverend Professor Archibald Charteris, a distinguished figure in the Church of Scotland during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The image, captured in a bygone age, showcases the Reverend's intellectual and spiritual authority. Reverend Professor Archibald Charteris (1835-1913) was a man of remarkable achievements. He served as the Principal of the Free Church of Scotland's Theological College in Edinburgh from 1885 to 1913. His profound knowledge and unwavering faith earned him the title of 'Reverend Professor.' The photograph, taken in the late 19th or early 20th century, portrays Reverend Professor Charteris in his study, surrounded by the trappings of scholarly pursuits. The room is filled with books, a testament to his extensive knowledge and dedication to theology. The warm, inviting light emanating from the lantern slide projector on the table suggests an evening of contemplation and learning. The Reverend's attire, including his collared shirt, waistcoat, and formal suit, reflects the era's fashionable yet practical style. His stern yet compassionate expression conveys the depth of his spiritual commitment and intellectual prowess. This photograph offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable man who dedicated his life to the Church of Scotland and the pursuit of knowledge. It serves as a reminder of the importance of faith, learning, and the enduring power of the written word.
