EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The First Interview: Captain Dalrymple of Fordel and Cleland," dates back to 1787 and was skillfully created by the renowned Scottish artist, John Kay. The image presents an intriguing encounter between an Edinburgh gentleman, identified as Captain Marten Dalrymple of Fordel and Cleland, and a lady adorned with an extraordinarily large hat. Captain Dalrymple, a landowner and industrialist, is depicted in the prime of his life, with an air of authority and confidence. His impeccably tailored attire, complete with a red waistcoat and a cravat, exudes an aura of wealth and sophistication. His left hand rests on a cane, adding to his distinguished appearance. Across from him sits a graceful lady, her face partially obscured by the oversized hat she wears. The hat, adorned with an elaborate design, is a fashion statement of the 1780s, reflecting the extravagance and elegance of the era. Her attire, consisting of a flowing gown and a shawl, complements the Captain's formal attire, creating a striking contrast between the two figures. The setting of the print is a serene outdoor environment, with a picturesque landscape in the background. The sun casts a warm glow on the scene, adding to the sense of tranquility and intimacy. The title of the print, "The First Interview," suggests that this is an important moment in the lives of these two individuals, perhaps a significant meeting or a courtship. John Kay's masterful use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to detail, bring this scene to life, transporting us back to the 18th century and allowing us to witness a moment in history that has been frozen in time.
