| Item Description |
This typically 'Scottish' late Victorian image shows a very orderly Highland Games scene from the 1880s. The Northern Meeting, held near Inverness, was a particularly well known games. The juxtaposition of bagpipes and thistles to illustrate the music for a dance, the Quadrille, which was, and remains particularly French, is interesting! |
