    Late 17th century portrait showing Highland Dress

    A chance discover led me to this interesting portrait from c1670 showing the actor John Lacy in Highland Dress (Source, the Royal Collection). I've posted (in higher res) and commented on this on my own FB page but it might promote some discussion here too if people are interested.
