History Scotland subscription

I have started to subscribe to "History Scotland" (website address is www.historyscotland.com) and received the Jan/Feb 2007 magazine this week. In an article by D C McWhannell, on Campbell boatbuilding, there is a reproduction of a painting of Sir Duncan Campbell, Glenorchy/Breadalbane branch of the Campbell Clan (1550-1631.) The man looks like a biker. Really! But in his time, you would have to be rough, if you were to survive to old age, as Sir Duncan did:

"Between 1600 and 1700, as in earlier times, significant raiding and local warfare was pursued. This required galleys to transport men, materials and booty around the coastlands of Argyll, between islands like Islay and Mull, and to Ireland." (p. 16)

The painting itself can be found in the Scottish National Portrait Gallery.
