EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly remarkable moment in history. Titled "Duke as Labourer" it showcases the Duke of Argyll, who dedicated two hours of his daily routine to work as a labourer. In this particular instance, he is seen assisting masons in erecting a belfry at All Saints Episcopal Church in Inverary, Argyllshire. Taken on 9th June 1924 by Central News, this monochrome portrait highlights the Duke's commitment to hands-on involvement and his willingness to embrace manual labor despite his noble status. Dressed in traditional Scottish attire including a kilt and sporran, he stands tall with an air of dignity amidst the construction site. The photograph not only provides insight into the Duke's character but also offers a glimpse into early twentieth-century Europeana photography. The full-length shot beautifully captures both the grandeur of the church architecture and the determination etched on the Duke's face. As we admire this image from TopFoto, we are reminded that personalities like the Duke of Argyll transcend societal expectations and stereotypes. This powerful visual narrative serves as a testament to humility, hard work, and dedication regardless of one's position or title
