EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Three Edinburgh Gentlemen" by the renowned Scottish artist John Kay, depicts three distinguished figures of Edinburgh society in the late 18th century. The trio comprises of the Grand Chaplain (1), the Grand Clerk (2), and the Grand Secretary (3), alias John McLure, Mr Meikle, and Mr Mason. The image, created in 1787, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and elegance of the era. The Grand Chaplain, dressed in his ecclesiastical robes, exudes an air of authority and piety. His calm demeanor and serious expression suggest a man deeply committed to his faith and duties. The Grand Clerk, with his quill pen in hand and ledger open before him, embodies the diligence and precision required of his position. His attire, consisting of a waistcoat, breeches, and cravat, reflects the professionalism and respectability of the role. The Grand Secretary, or Mr Mason, is depicted in a more relaxed pose, with his arms crossed and a thoughtful expression on his face. The alias of John McLure and Mr Meikle are inscribed beneath their respective portraits, indicating that these were perhaps their nicknames or alternative names. The trio's formal attire, along with the ornate frame and intricate detailing, adds to the overall grandeur of the image, making it a striking representation of Edinburgh's elite during the 1780s.
