EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history in the form of a man's coat or hunting coat from Scotland, specifically associated with Johnstone Castle in Renfrewshire. Dating back to around 1841-1843, this exquisite garment is made of red or scarlet wool broadcloth, known as hunting pink, and features intricate details that speak to its high quality craftsmanship.
The turned-down collar faced in green wool broadcloth adds a touch of elegance to the double-breasted fastening adorned with silver buttons depicting a slender fox jumping over a thistle. The long fitted sleeves and tails give this coat a classic silhouette that exudes sophistication and style.
Believed to have been worn by Ludovic Houston or possibly his son George Houston, this coat is not just a piece of clothing but also a symbol of tradition and heritage. The combination of wool, silk, linen, and silver materials used in its construction further highlights the attention to detail put into creating such an exceptional garment.
Displayed at Glasgow Museums in the UK, this coat serves as a reminder of the rich history and culture associated with Scottish fashion during the 19th century. It stands as a testament to the artistry and skill of those who crafted it, making it truly deserving of being captured in this remarkable print by Bridgeman Images.
