EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from Plate 39 of the Modern Athenians series, showcases a pivotal moment in Edinburgh's history. The photograph captures Scottish judge, Duncan McNeill, 1st Baron Colonsay (1793-1874), in conversation with John Learmonth (1789-1858), a prominent Scottish politician, coachbuilder, and the man responsible for constructing the iconic Dean Bridge at a personal cost of £30,000. The year is 1848, and the setting is the bustling streets of Edinburgh. Both men are dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, with McNeill wearing a formal black coat and top hat, while Learmonth dons a more casual waistcoat and cravat. The background is filled with the sights and sounds of the city, including horse-drawn carriages, pedestrians, and the construction site of the bridge in the distance. McNeill and Learmonth's meeting was likely a significant one, as both men were influential figures in their respective fields. McNeill, a Scottish judge, had a distinguished career in the legal profession, while Learmonth, a coachbuilder and politician, was a key figure in the construction of the Dean Bridge, which would become an engineering marvel and a symbol of Edinburgh's progress and innovation. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of two influential Scots and the city they called home. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that Edinburgh has to offer, and a testament to the important role that individuals can play in shaping the world around them.
