EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Charles Stewart Forbes, 5th Baronet of Newe in the County of Aberdeen (1867-1927): A Captivating Portrait from Vanity Fair This portrait of Sir Charles Stewart Forbes, 5th Baronet of Newe in Aberdeen, Scotland, was originally published in Vanity Fair, a renowned British weekly magazine known for its satirical and socially critical commentary. The photograph, taken between the years 1867 and 1927, showcases Sir Charles in an elegant and refined manner, donning a formal suit and a serious expression. Born into the esteemed Forbes family, Sir Charles inherited the title and estate of Newe at a young age. The Baronetcy of Newe is an hereditary title in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia, which was created in 1625. Sir Charles' lineage can be traced back to King James I of Scotland, making him a part of Scottish nobility with a rich and storied history. Despite his noble background, Sir Charles' portrait in Vanity Fair features an intriguing addition – an ape perched on his shoulder. This playful element adds a touch of whimsy and lightheartedness to an otherwise formal image, reflecting the magazine's reputation for satire and wit. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the life of a Scottish baronet during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It also serves as a reminder of the historical significance of Vanity Fair as a cultural institution that documented the lives of the wealthy and influential during this period.
