EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tarbolton, Procession of St. James Lodge, 1846" takes us back in time to a significant moment in Scottish history. The engraving, captured by David Octavius Hill (1802-70), showcases the procession of St. James Lodge through the picturesque village of Tarbolton. The image transports us to a bygone era, where we witness a vibrant crowd gathering along the streets. Men and women from the parish proudly participate in this grand event, showcasing their unwavering support for their local lodge. Tarbolton holds great significance as it was here that renowned poet Robert Burns (1759-1796) became a freemason. This historical fact adds an extra layer of depth to this already remarkable scene. As our eyes wander through the photograph, we are drawn to the magnificent architecture surrounding the procession. The steeple stands tall against the sky, symbolizing unity and strength within this close-knit community. Hill's masterful composition captures not only the physical aspects but also conveys a sense of camaraderie among these villagers. We can almost feel their excitement and pride radiating from every face present on that day. This extraordinary piece serves as both a visual testament to Scottish heritage and an ode to communal spirit. It reminds us of our shared history and traditions while celebrating individual contributions that shape our society even today.
