EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, plate 35 from the 'Modern Athenians' series, transports us back to the historic streets of Edinburgh in the mid-19th century. The photograph features two military men, Captain Thomas Fraser (1796-1870) and Major James Pearson (1787-1848), engaged in a casual encounter on the bustling streets of Scotland's capital city. Captain Fraser, poised and confident in his smart military uniform, wears the insignia of the Royal Scots Greys on his lapel. His dark, piercing gaze is fixed on the horizon, suggesting a man deep in thought or lost in the reminiscence of past battles. Major Pearson, on the other hand, is equally impeccably dressed in his military attire, his white beard and kindly expression conveying a sense of wisdom and experience. The year is 1847, and the pair's meeting on the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh is a testament to the rich military history that permeated the city during this period. Both men, with their distinguished appearances and air of authority, embody the spirit of the Scottish military elite of the time. Little is known about the personal lives of these two men, adding an intriguing layer of mystery to this evocative photograph. Captain Fraser, born in 1796, would have seen active service during the Napoleonic Wars, while Major Pearson, born in 1787, may have fought in the Peninsular War or the Battle of Waterloo. The exact circumstances of their encounter in Edinburgh remain a tantalizing enigma, inviting us to imagine the stories they might have shared as they passed each other on the street. This image, a precious snapshot of history, offers a glimpse into the lives of two military men in Edinburgh during a time of great change and transformation. The intrigue and allure of the past are palpable, making this photograph a must-have for history enthusiasts and collectors of fine art.
