EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Lord Northesk, the Scottish representative peer, in a moment of elegance and sporting prowess. Taken in 1935, the image showcases Lord Northesk's multifaceted personality as he confidently poses with a glass of gin in hand. Lord Northesk was not only an aristocrat but also an accomplished athlete, having won a bronze medal in skeleton racing at the 1928 Winter Olympics. Dressed impeccably in traditional Scottish attire including a kilt and spectacles, he exudes sophistication and charm. The advertisement for Booths Gin prominently displayed beside him adds to the allure of this photograph. It serves as a reminder that even individuals from noble backgrounds appreciate life's simple pleasures such as enjoying a refreshing drink amidst their busy schedules. The monochrome composition further enhances the timeless quality of this image, transporting us back to an era when road transport was still prominent. Lord Northesk stands proudly against this backdrop, embodying both tradition and progress. This remarkable portrait is not just about one man; it encapsulates Scotland's rich heritage, winter sports culture, and its association with fine spirits like gin. A true testament to Lord Northesk's legacy as both an influential figure and an exceptional athlete who left his mark on history.
