EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of The 42nd - The Black Watch (Royal Highlanders) in 1890. Taken by Godfrey Douglas Giles, this image showcases a single member of the renowned 42nd regiment of foot, standing tall with his arms folded. Dressed in the distinctive military uniform, he proudly wears a bearskin hat and a traditional Scottish kilt. The soldier's stern expression reflects his dedication to duty and loyalty to Britain. Positioned against the backdrop of a fortification, this portrait exudes strength and resilience. His sword at his side symbolizes both protection and power. The attention to detail in this photograph is remarkable; every crease on his jacket can be seen clearly, while the intricate design on his sporran adds an artistic touch. This image is part of "Her Majesty's Army, Vol. II" by Walter Richards, published by J. S Virtue & Co Limited in London. As we delve into history through this snapshot from the late 19th century, it becomes evident that military attire has always been an integral part of British culture. The Black Watch stands as a testament to Scotland's rich heritage within Her Majesty's armed forces. This print serves as a reminder of our country's brave soldiers who have dedicated their lives to protect our nation throughout centuries past. It encapsulates not only their physical appearance but also their unwavering commitment to serve and defend.
