EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken from the 'Modern Athenians' series, depicts a chance encounter between two prominent Edinburgh figures: James Aytoun (1797-1881) and Alexander Robertson (c. 1787-1847). The photograph, taken in the bustling streets of Edinburgh, captures the moment of awe and admiration on Robertson's face as he gazes up at Aytoun's towering presence. James Aytoun, an advocate of the Scottish bar, was known for his impressive stature and formidable reputation. Standing tall and imposing, he dwarfs the petite figure of Alexander Robertson, a music seller and teacher, who appears to be deeply engrossed in contemplating the sheer size of the man before him. The year is 1881, and the scene is set against the backdrop of Edinburgh's historic architecture, adding to the sense of nostalgia and intrigue. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of two men from different walks of life, and the unexpected interaction between them. Alexander Robertson, with his humble profession, stands in stark contrast to Aytoun's prestigious career as an advocate. Yet, the image conveys a sense of respect and admiration between the two men, as they engage in a brief yet meaningful exchange. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of Edinburgh and the diverse range of individuals who once called it home. It invites us to reflect on the lives of these two men and the impact they had on their community, as well as the broader historical context of the time. In conclusion, this image of James Aytoun and Alexander Robertson, taken from the 'Modern Athenians' series, is a fascinating snapshot of Edinburgh's past and a reminder of the intriguing stories that lie hidden within its historic streets.
