EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Deil's Awa' wi' the Exciseman," depicts a lively scene from Robert Burns' famous poem, "Tam o' Shanter." Dated back to 1792, the image captures the moment when the Devil, disguised as a black cat, is seen playing his fiddle in the town square, surrounded by unsuspecting townspeople. In the foreground, an exciseman, a tax collector, is shown dancing with a woman, oblivious to the mischievous presence of the Devil. Burns' poem, which was published in 1791, is a classic example of Scottish folk poetry and is renowned for its vivid storytelling and use of local dialect. The tale follows the adventures of Tam o' Shanter as he rides home from a pub late at night, encountering various supernatural beings along the way. The Devil, in the form of a cat, attempts to join Tam on his horse, but is only able to take along Tam's faithful dog, Mouser Mortter. This print is a testament to the enduring appeal of Burns' poetry and the rich history of Scotland's literary and artistic traditions. It also offers a glimpse into the daily life of a Scottish town in the late 18th century, with its lively social scene and traditional attire. The intricate details of the print, from the expressive faces of the characters to the textured fabrics and foliage, make it a fascinating historical artifact and a must-have for any collection of Scottish literature or art. Whether you're a fan of Burns' poetry, Scottish history, or simply appreciate the beauty of traditional art, this print is sure to captivate and inspire you with its vivid storytelling and intricate details.
