EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time as members of the Gordon Highlanders regiment engage in the traditional Scottish craft of making kilts in the open air. The soldiers, some of whom are casually smoking their pipes, are deeply concentrated on their work, their expressions reflecting a sense of focus and determination. The use of a sewing machine, a more efficient method of production than hand-stitching, is evident in the foreground, highlighting the regiment's adaptability and resourcefulness. The Gordon Highlanders, a renowned Scottish infantry regiment with a rich history dating back to 1881, were known for their distinctive tartan uniforms. Making kilts was an essential part of their military life, as they were responsible for providing their own clothing. During this period, around 1902, the regiment was likely based in a workhouse or barracks where they would have had access to the necessary materials and facilities for kilt-making. The scene depicted in this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of the Gordon Highlanders during the Edwardian era. It showcases the soldiers' commitment to their regiment, their craftsmanship, and their connection to their Scottish heritage. The use of natural light and the picturesque surroundings add to the image's historical and nostalgic appeal.
