    Graham: I searched that art site and came up with various pics of Scotland and a search under Kilt brought up a pic of another kilty.

    Actually, that kilt length is pretty close to traditional length (top of the knee cap). It is a little short, but traditional kilts were worn at top of knee cap or shorter, but never longer.

    I saw that one too, interesting, but I wouldn't have it on my wall.

    I was sent that 'Shepherd' painting last summer, Graham - in the form of a birthday card! Very nice, somewhat in the Victorian style!
