Summary
Description Culloden 1745 tartan, centred, zoomed out.png |
English:
This is a tartan pattern (probably a Jacobite one) that survives from the era of the Battle of Culloden in 1745. The design was first published in D. W. Stewart's 1893
Old & Rare Scottish Tartans
, but with incorrect proportions and colours. The original coat the design was taken from was rediscoved in Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery, Glasgow, in 2007, by tartan researcher Peter Eslea MacDonald and reproduced by him more precisely
[1]
. It is also recorded now in the Scottish Register of Tartans.
This image is not exactly full-sett, and cannot tile horizontally and vertically; this centred and very slightly zoomed-out version was created for tabular comparison to other tartans given the same treatment. SRT's notes: "Count from the original Culloden coat discovered (and later examined) by Peter MacDonald on display at the Kelvingrove Museum, Glasgow July 07." This is a normal mirroring tartan. SRT-provided threadcount, in slash notation: /R20 LSB4 NB40 W8 K40 OG40 K4 Y12/ or in bold notation: R 20 LSB4 NB40 W8 K40 OG40 K4 Y 12 (where LSB = light sky blue, NB = navy blue, OG = olive green; the coat was faded and the original colours could have been azure, which is still a fairly light blue, regular tartan blue, and regular tartan green). |
