EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Colonel Joseph Laing, a distinguished Scottish immigrant who served as the commanding officer of the Disbanded 79th Regiment of Scottish Highlanders in New York State. The image, created by W. A. Rogers in 1894, beautifully captures the essence of this late 19th-century Scottish colonel. Colonel Laing stands tall and proud, donning his traditional Scottish highland attire. His kilt, intricately woven with tartan patterns representing his clan heritage, flows gracefully around him. A sporran hangs from his waistbelt, adding an elegant touch to his ensemble. With a stern yet dignified expression on his face, Colonel Laing grasps a sword firmly in one hand—a symbol of authority and military prowess. His hat sits atop his head at a jaunty angle, completing the look of an esteemed officer. The illustration transports us back to turn-of-the-century America when immigrants like Colonel Laing played crucial roles in shaping their adopted country's history. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural tapestry that has contributed to American society over time. Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable piece from their collection—an homage to not only Colonel Joseph Laing but also countless other individuals who left their homelands behind to forge new lives in America.
