EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Royal Tradition: McIntosh of Partick Tosses the Caber at the Braemar Gathering, 1909". This evocative photograph captures the spirit of Scotland's rich history and traditions during the annual Braemar Gathering in 1909. The event, held on the first Saturday of September in the picturesque village of Braemar, has been a royal patronage since the reign of Queen Victoria. In this scene, a muscular Highlander named McIntosh of Partick proudly showcases his strength and skill by attempting to toss the caber. The caber, a tree trunk weighing around 120 pounds (54 kilograms), is a classic test of strength in Scottish heavy sports. McIntosh's determined expression and the supportive crowd in kilts and traditional Scottish attire create an atmosphere steeped in history and tradition. The British monarch, represented here by Queen Victoria, has been the patron of the Braemar Royal Highland Society since 1848. This patronage continues to the present day, with the reigning monarch attending the gathering to celebrate Scotland's heritage and culture. The annual Braemar Gathering is a cherished event that showcases the unique customs and sports of Scotland, including the caber toss, the shot put, and the hammer throw. The event's historical significance and connection to the British monarchy make it a must-see destination for visitors and locals alike. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past and the enduring traditions that continue to thrive in Scotland today.
