EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn and dignified atmosphere of the Meeting of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in 1783. The clergy, clad in white wigs and dark gowns, are seated in rows engaged in discussions or reading from sheets of paper. The High Commissioner to the assembly, David Melville, 6th Earl of Leven, presides over the gathering from a raised platform on the right, with a ceremonial mace carried below him.
Intriguingly, men and women can be seen peering down on the scene from an upper gallery, adding another layer of depth to this historical moment. The etching by David Allan beautifully captures not only the attire and demeanor of those present but also conveys a sense of reverence and importance attached to this religious ceremony.
This image serves as a window into 18th-century Scottish society and religious practices, showcasing both tradition and hierarchy within the Church. It is a snapshot frozen in time that allows us to glimpse into a pivotal moment in history when matters concerning faith were deliberated upon with great care and respect.
