EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Gurning Gathering: Farmers Express Their Reactions at the Castle Douglas Sheep Sale, Dumfries and Galloway, SW Scotland (1999)" 2. Description: This evocative photograph captures a moment of camaraderie and light-heartedness amidst the bustling atmosphere of the Castle Douglas cattle market in Dumfries and Galloway, South West Scotland, during the late 1990s. The scene features a group of farmers, their faces contorted in amusement and mock seriousness, as they watch intently over the proceedings of a sheep sale. The farmers, dressed in their traditional workwear, have gathered around the auctioneer, their expressions a mix of concentration, amusement, and relief as they size up the animals before them. The image transports us back to a simpler time, when the daily business of farming was conducted in a communal and often lively manner. 3. Background: The Castle Douglas cattle market, located in the heart of Dumfries and Galloway, has been a hub for farmers and livestock traders since the late 1800s. This photograph, taken in 1999, captures a moment of levity during the sheep sale. The farmers' "pulling faces" or "gurning," a traditional Scottish practice, is a way of expressing their emotions and reactions to the events unfolding around them. This photograph, by acclaimed photographer Philip Dunn, offers a glimpse into the rich agricultural heritage of South West Scotland and the unique customs of its farming community. 4.
