EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Drummer John Rennie, a distinguished member of the 72nd (Duke of Albany's Own Highlanders) Regiment of Foot. The image, taken by renowned photographers Joseph Cundall and Robert Howlett, is part of an album titled "Crimean Heroes 1856" showcasing brave individuals who fought in the Crimean War. At 72 years old, Drummer John Rennie stands proudly in his impeccably detailed uniform. His bearskin hat sits atop his head with an air of authority, while his tartan trousers pay homage to his Scottish heritage. This portrait exudes strength and resilience as it immortalizes a true hero. Rennie's weathered face tells tales of battles fought and victories won. As a veteran musician, he holds a bugle close to his chest - an instrument that once rallied troops on the battlefield. The three-quarter length composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail: from the buttons adorning his uniform to the busby resting beside him. This photograph not only serves as a testament to Rennie's courage but also showcases Victorian-era photography at its finest. Preserved by London's National Army Museum, this print reminds us of the sacrifices made during times of war and honors those who have dedicated their lives in service to their country.
