EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Scottish crofter and his daughter during the Victorian period in the Western Isles of Scotland. The father, dressed in traditional Scottish attire, exudes a sense of pride and resilience as he poses with his young daughter by his side. The rugged landscape of Isle of Skye provides a stunning backdrop to this intimate family portrait. The image is steeped in history, offering a glimpse into the daily life of crofters in 19th century Scotland. The daughter's innocent expression and her father's weathered face tell a story of hard work and perseverance in the face of harsh living conditions. The use of vintage lantern slide technology adds an air of nostalgia to the photograph, transporting viewers back to a time when life was simpler yet more challenging. This rare glimpse into the past allows us to appreciate the rich cultural heritage of the Hebrides region and its people. As we gaze upon this Edwardian-era image, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our history and honoring those who came before us. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has provided us with a valuable window into Scotland's past, allowing us to connect with our ancestors and gain insight into their way of life.
