EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the members of the St Kilda Parliament, an informal and democratic gathering of men from the Isle of Harris in Scotland, during the Victorian era of the late 1800s. The Parliament was a unique institution that took place in the village street, where men would meet regularly to discuss and agree upon any work that needed to be done in their community. The image portrays a sense of equality and unity, as these men come together to make decisions that would impact their lives and the development of their village. The setting of the photograph is a reminder of the rugged beauty of the Outer Hebrides, with the stone buildings and walls providing a stark contrast to the vibrant colors of the men's traditional attire. The Parliament was a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people of St Kilda, who lived in a challenging environment and relied on each other for support and cooperation. Despite the informal nature of the Parliament, it represents an important aspect of the political history of Scotland, showcasing the democratic values and community spirit that were prevalent in rural areas during this time. The photograph is a valuable historical record of a unique and fascinating aspect of Scottish culture, providing insights into the lives of people who lived in isolation from the rest of the world, yet managed to build a strong and cohesive community.
