Beschreibung
| Beschreibung | An officer of the 42nd Regiment of Foot (Black Watch), c. 1791–93. The illustration is interesting because it shows the intermediary evolution of both the feather bonnet and the short doublet (jacket) later worn with the kilt. Also of note are the ribbon garters of the hose, which are transitional between the earlier strings and the later more decorative flashes. The figure has been described as "top-heavy" because the artist was more used to painting officers in trousers, and made this subject's torso overly long. The kilt is also probably shown worn a bit too low. A minor intersting feature is the ribbon rosettes shown on both the bottom of the kilt and the bottom of the fly plaid (which is attached further back than was later the usual case. Dating this piece has varied between different sources, but the artist is known to have been working on these uniform portraits in 1791–1793, and the white sword belt in this particular uniform places it no earlier than the 1789–91 range during the transition away from black, anyway; so, between the two facts, I cannot date to earlier than 1791. (One source, I. H. Mackay Scobie, had incorrectly dated this to c. 1780). | |||||||||||||||||||||||
