SUMMARY:George Bain: The Continuous Line
DESCRIPTION:George Bain (1881-1968) was a visionary Scottish artist and educator who devoted his life to observing the world around him\, learning from it\, and sharing his insights through art. \nHis meticulous deconstruction of intricate Celtic designs not only reveals their construction and beauty but also encourages us to engage with this rich heritage in practical ways. \nThrough his work\, Bain shared his discoveries widely\, leaving a legacy that continues to guide and inspire artists today. \nAs you explore George’s work\, we invite you to consider the importance of drawing as an essential tool for shaping our understanding of the world. Drawing can unlock hidden potential\, capture fleeting moments\, clarify our thoughts\, and deepen our connections to the past\, present\, and future. \nAdditionally\, this exhibition highlights George’s connections to the Royal Scottish Academy\, making it a proud part of RSA200: Celebrating Together\, which commemorates the Academy’s remarkable 200-year history. \n  \nThe George Bain Collection features approximately 3\,000 items related to the artist and educator George Bain (1881 1968). This exhibition showcases a small selection of artworks and objects from the collection recognised as a Collection of National Significance to Scotland. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Brutal Murder or Ritual Sacrifice? Rosemarkie Man and the Rosemarkie Caves
DESCRIPTION:Steve Birch\, director of excavations for the Rosemarkie Caves Project will talk about the discovery of Rosemarkie Man within the wider context of the excavations in the Rosemarkie Caves\, Black Isle. \nThe discovery of Rosemarkie Man in 2016\, in a cave located at Learnie\, to the northeast of Rosemarkie on the Black Isle\, has received significant coverage in the press and media. The location and deposition of the inhumation within a dark recess within the former sea cave in association with the bones of cattle\, horse\, and fish\, with stones placed over the arms and lower limbs\, suggested a ‘deviant’ burial – that is\, one that has been treated differently than others. Traits often used to classify a burial as deviant\, include decapitations\, amputation or mutilation (overkill)\, and burials in isolated or unusual places. Detailed forensic analysis indicated a series of blows to the man’s head\, suggesting significant ‘overkill’. Radiocarbon dating of the human remains placed his death during the 5th to 6th centuries AD – a period during which there were many cultural influences and developments in the region. The burial has the potential to represent Pictish\, Viking\, early Christian or other influencing factors. \nThis presentation will place Rosemarkie Man within the wider context of activities taking place within the Rosemarkie Caves\, especially a group of three caves located at Learnie\, spanning the Late Iron Age to Later Historic period. Industrial use of the caves included metalworking during the Late Iron Age to Early Medieval periods\, while Traveller Folk using the caves during the 18th to 19th centuries AD included horn-working\, tin-smithing and the recycling of other materials\, and repairing of leather shoes.

SUMMARY:Rosemarkie\, Iona\, Orcades and the Importance of the North
DESCRIPTION:Rosemarkie\, Iona\, Orcades\, and the importance of the North.  An online talk given by  Dr Oisin Plumb of The Institute for Northern Studies\, University of the Highlands and Islands. \nIn the medieval worldview\, the Highlands and Islands inhabited a place which was both peripheral and central: They marked the edge of the known world\, reflected in the frequent use of ‘Orcades’ to represent the boundary of civilisation in the minds of scholars throughout Europe. However\, this very peripherality gave the Highlands and Islands a crucial centrality in the medieval Christian view of the world: The activities of Rosemarkie\, Iona and other northern establishments marked the fulfilment of Christ’s instructions to bring his message to the ‘uttermost part of the earth’. This talk will look at how texts and maps up to the 12th century juggled this contradiction- representing Rosemarkie\, Iona and the Orcades places of both geographical peripherality and cosmological centrality.
