EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 28 of the Modern Athenians series, published in 1847, captures an intriguing moment in the history of Edinburgh, Scotland. The image depicts Reverend Thomas Russell (d. 1843-44) in a casual conversation with an enigmatic figure identified as Mr. Hector McNeill. The photograph, taken around 1843, offers a rare glimpse into the everyday life of Edinburgh's citizens during that era. Reverend Thomas Russell was a prominent figure in Edinburgh's religious community, serving as the minister of the Canongate Kirk. He was known for his charitable works and his dedication to the welfare of the city's poor. In this photograph, however, he is shown in a more informal setting, dressed in a simple coat and waistcoat, engaging in a conversation with a man who appears to be quite the opposite of the religious figure. Mr. Hector McNeill, a man of little known biographical details, is depicted as a sporty and well-dressed gentleman. He wears a fashionable coat, a top hat, and carries a walking stick. His demeanor suggests a man of leisure, possibly involved in Edinburgh's social and athletic circles. The reason for their conversation remains a mystery, but the photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the diversity of Edinburgh's population and the various social interactions that took place in the city during that time. The Modern Athenians series, which included this photograph, was a groundbreaking work that documented the lives of prominent Scots and their contributions to society. This particular plate, with its intriguing depiction of Reverend Thomas Russell and Mr. Hector McNeill, offers a unique perspective into the lives of Edinburgh's citizens during the mid-19th century.
