More Kilt Art
Hi folks
We had a thread awhile back about kilt art, and it took me awhile to remember to check at home to see who the artist is on a print that I bought several years ago and like very much. Although the picture shows a Highlander with a Cherokee warrior, the picture is meaningful to me because my Ferguson ancestors came to the Mohawk Valley in New York State with the British Highland Regiments and undoubtedly worked with Iroquois scouts. The pipe band that I play in (the Mohawk Valley Frasers) is also named for the 78th Frasers Highland Regiment of Foot that built Fort Stanwix west of Oriskany here in the Mohawk Valley.
I've pasted a jpeg of the print below. If anyone is interested in purchasing it, it's available from several web sites (e.g., http://www.lordnelsons.com/gallery/f...iffing/33.htm). The artist is Robert Griffing and the title is "Warriors".
