Description
Soldiers are parading on the Castle Esplanade. They wear full highland dress which includes kilt, bearskin and sporran. All of the highlanders are carrying a rifle. Some of the soldiers are on horseback, these riders are carrying swords. The soldiers are standing to attention in front of a flag. An arched entryway to the castle is just visible to the back of the parade. Two monuments stand on the Esplanade, one of a cross the other of a man. There is a spectator in the foreground who is wearing a suit and a bowler hat.
