EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The London Scottish - Volunteers" in 1890, captured by the talented creator Godfrey Douglas Giles. The image is sourced from the book "Her Majesty's Army, Vol. II" by Walter Richards, published by J. S. Virtue & Co. Limited in London during the same year. In this mesmerizing portrait, a distinguished gentleman stands proudly amidst a moorland backdrop adorned with bracken plants. He dons an exquisite military uniform of the era, consisting of a stylish jacket and cloak in shades of beige that perfectly complement his kilt. With his side profile turned towards us, he exudes an air of confidence and strength. The man grasps a musket firmly in his hands, symbolizing his role as part of the volunteer forces serving Britain during this period of warfare. His gaze seems focused yet contemplative as if preparing for battle or reflecting on past experiences. Through this photograph, Giles masterfully captures not only the individual but also conveys a sense of camaraderie among men who voluntarily joined regiments like The London Scottish to serve their country with honor and dedication. As we delve into history through this remarkable image, it serves as a poignant reminder of those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom and pays tribute to all those brave souls who served in Her Majesty's Army during the nineteenth century.
