Macan of Lurgyvallan Portrait Tartan Tartan Number: 1155. Earliest known date: 1831 The portrait of 'Captain Macan of Lurgyvallan painted and presented to him by his sincere friend William MacKenzie, 24th Oct. 1831' was recently sold at auction in London. The watercolour measured 10 by 7 inches. The chief (three eagles feathers) is wearing full Highland Dress. The tartan is a sort of MacLean of Duart, in the red Stewart group, but showing the MacLean inversion. No such person or clan or tartan or chief ever existed.
