EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the traditional attire of a young man from the Drummond Clan, dressed in the Drummond tartan circa 1846. The Drummond tartan, one of the oldest in Scotland, dates back to the 15th century and is steeped in history and symbolism. The red, black, and yellow design features a distinctive saltire and wavy stripes, representing the Clan's Scottish Highland heritage. The man in the photograph wears the tartan proudly, in the form of a kilt, which is secured with a sporran, a traditional Scottish pouch worn at the hip. Over his shoulder, he dons a plaid, which is draped over his left shoulder and pinned at the right, a nod to the Clan's proud Scottish heritage. Completing the ensemble is a red hat adorned with a feather, adding a touch of elegance and distinction to his appearance. The photograph, taken in the early Victorian era around 1846, captures the essence of the Scottish Highlands and the Clan system that was an integral part of Scottish society during this time. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a connection to the rich history and traditions of the Drummond Clan and the Scottish people as a whole. The Drummond Clan, also known as the Clan MacIan, has a long and storied history, with ties to the Scottish nobility and a strong presence in the Highlands. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Clan and the Scottish people, whose traditions and customs continue to be celebrated and cherished to this day.
