EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of John Stuart Blackie, a prominent Scottish classicist and man of letters who left an indelible mark on Glasgow and Edinburgh. Born in 1809 in Glasgow, Blackie's intellectual prowess led him to become a revered Professor of Greek at Edinburgh University from 1852 to 1882. However, his influence extended far beyond academia. Blackie's unwavering commitment to his Celtic heritage was instrumental in establishing a Celtic chair at Edinburgh University. A politically radical and nationalistic figure, he became well-known throughout Edinburgh for his distinctive attire - donning a broad-brimmed hat and proudly wearing a plaid over his shoulder like a shepherd. The tinted lithograph showcased here is part of The National Portrait Gallery collection in London, dating back to around 1880. It beautifully portrays Blackie's scholarly demeanor while also capturing the spirit of his Scottish roots. His piercing gaze reflects both wisdom and determination as he stands as an embodiment of British intellectuality. John Stuart Blackie's legacy resonates through time as not only an esteemed professor but also as an advocate for nationalism and cultural preservation. This image serves as a testament to his profound impact on education, politics, and the celebration of Scotland's rich heritage during the late nineteenth century
