EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from the Modern Athenians series, plate 3, showcases two distinguished gentlemen of Edinburgh in the early 19th century. The first figure, identified as Lieut-General Ainslie, is an ex-military man and a passionate collector of antiquated coins, port, and china. His elegant attire, complete with a red military coat, white waistcoat, and black trousers, exudes an air of authority and refinement. The general, poised in a leisurely stroll, seems lost in thought as he approaches his fellow collector, Bindon Blood of Cranacher. Bindon Blood, known locally as the 'Vampire and Dragon' among book collectors, is a collector of old literature. His enigmatic moniker is a testament to his extensive and eclectic collection. Dressed in a dark suit and top hat, Blood appears engrossed in a book, oblivious to the approaching Ainslie. The setting of this historical tableau is South Frederick Street, a bustling street in Edinburgh, where the exchange of ideas and the pursuit of knowledge were highly valued. The image captures the essence of the city's rich cultural heritage and the spirit of intellectual curiosity that thrived during this period. The Modern Athenians series, a collection of photographs documenting the lives of prominent figures in Edinburgh during the 1800s, offers a unique glimpse into the past. This image of Lieut-General Ainslie and Bindon Blood of Cranacher, two esteemed collectors, highlights the city's vibrant intellectual scene and the enduring allure of the past.
