EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black-and-white photograph, Sarah Baillie-Hamilton, the Countess of Haddington, is seen gracefully carrying two Scottish Terriers as she makes her way through a bustling dogs bazaar held in the Music Hall, Edinburgh, in the year 1929. The Countess, who was formerly known as Sarah Cook before her marriage to the 11th Earl of Haddington, exudes an air of elegance and refinement amidst the lively scene. The Scottish Terriers, affectionately known as Scotties, nestle comfortably in her arms, their distinctive wiry coats and expressive faces adding to the charm of the image. The dogs, with their proud and independent demeanor, seem to be enjoying the outing as much as their owner. The Music Hall, a popular venue for various social and cultural events in Edinburgh during that era, serves as the perfect backdrop for this delightful portrait. The dogs bazaar was an occasion for dog enthusiasts to gather, socialize, and showcase their beloved pets. The Countess of Haddington's presence at the event further underscores the significance of Scottish Terriers in Scottish society during the early 20th century. Her devotion to her dogs is evident in this photograph, which captures a memorable moment in the history of Scottish Terrier enthusiasts and the aristocracy of Scotland. This timeless image not only showcases the Countess's love for her Scottish Terriers but also highlights the strong bond between the aristocracy and their canine companions during that era. The photograph is a testament to the enduring popularity of Scottish Terriers and the role they played in the lives of the Scottish nobility.
