EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 16 of the Modern Athenians series, captured in Edinburgh during the early 1840s, depicts two distinguished members of the Faculty of Advocates, Robert Forsyth and John Shank More, engaged in a lively conversation while taking a leisurely stroll through the bustling streets of Scotland's capital city. The antiquated yet poised appearance of these two gentlemen, dressed in the traditional robes and wigs of their profession, transports us back in time to an era of elegance and refinement. Robert Forsyth, born around 1764, is shown on the left, his face framed by a crisp white wig and a fur-trimmed robe. He clutches a large umbrella, a necessary accessory in the unpredictable Scottish weather. John Shank More, born around 1784, is seen on the right, his expression thoughtful as he listens intently to Forsyth. Both men appear deep in conversation, their gestures and body language conveying a sense of camaraderie and mutual respect. The historical significance of this image lies not only in the portrayal of these two prominent figures but also in the backdrop of Edinburgh's vibrant urban scene. The cobblestone streets, horse-drawn carriages, and pedestrians dressed in the latest fashions all contribute to a vivid and authentic representation of life in Edinburgh during this period. This plate from the Modern Athenians series offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the history and culture of Edinburgh and its people over 180 years ago.
