EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of admiration and curiosity as a Highland officer, dressed in his traditional kilt, makes his way down the main street of a small Italian town during the First World War in 1918. The Scottish regiments, with their distinctive kilts, were a novelty in Europe and attracted much attention from the local population in countries such as France, Belgium, and Italy. In this image, women stand transfixed, casting admiring glances at the soldier, while curious children run in front of him, trying to get a closer look. The Highland regiments, with their rich history and unique uniforms, were a source of fascination for the European population, who were accustomed to the more common uniforms of the European armies. This photograph, taken by renowned illustrator and photographer, Fortunino Matania, provides a glimpse into the past, offering a poignant reminder of the human connection that transcended the boundaries of war.
