Commercial Bank of Scotland - who is that bloke?

I have a couple of One Pound notes from the Commercial Bank of Scotland
which are not covered by my catalogue - I assume they come under the banner
of 'specialised issues' for some reason.

The notes date 2nd January 1947 and 2nd January 1957, the first is a rather
impressive purple the second a more toned down blue - Apart from their
colour both notes look the same.

Other than wishing to know the pick numbers for these, I wonder if someone
can shed some light on who the man is featured on the right hand side of
the notes?

Thanks in advance, oh and Happy New Year!
Darren

It's Lord Cockburn. Billy
