EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the engraving of Dr John Brown, a prominent figure in 18th-century Scotland. Created by John Kay, this artwork is part of a series that showcases original portraits and caricature etchings along with biographical sketches and illustrative anecdotes. Dr John Brown was not only a physician but also the founder of the Roman Eagle Lodge, which is depicted in this engraving. The lodge played an important role in Scottish society during that time, serving as a meeting place for influential individuals from various fields such as medicine, music, and politics. In this lively scene, we see men gathered together engaged in conversation and enjoying each other's company. The depiction offers us a glimpse into the social life of 18th-century Edinburgh during the Scottish Enlightenment period. The engraving highlights several notable figures present at the gathering including Lord Bellen Den, Little of Libberton, John Lamont, Dr William Cullen, Dr Alexander Hamilton, Dr James Graham - all distinguished members of society who contributed significantly to their respective fields. This artwork provides valuable insight into both medical practices and social dynamics prevalent during this era. It serves as a testament to the intellectual curiosity and camaraderie among these accomplished Scotsmen who were instrumental in shaping their society's progress.
