Kilted Artwork

**Graham** · 21st February 06, 06:22 AM

Since I commissioned a copy of a painting to be done last year of a favourite painting of two men working in kilts...I've had an interest in collecting painting or prints depicting men in kilts.

I've found a nice print here
I have ordered it and will have it framed locally.

heck I have this kilt thing bad

Very nice painting, well chosen, but is it just me or is his kilt a little on the short side, or did they prefer them that way back then?? :confused:

From the library book on Scottish clothing that I've been reading, a lot of the glossy plates show the men wearing kilts that were significantly shorter than what we wear today.

I'll have to check the title of the book, since I just returned it to the library, but it had a lot of great pics.

Graham,

Just love the serene nature of the picture, very nice indeed.

It seems that I too am noticing more and more pieces of art that have some sort of Kilted gent in them. No complaints, just simply love them all, so yes we all have this Kilt thing bad.
