EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Bust of Robert Dundas of Arniston, Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer of Scotland" sculpted by Francis Legatt Chantrey. The bust, created between 1817 and 1818, is made from plaster and measures an impressive 65.8x48.5x27 cm. Robert Dundas, a prominent figure in Scottish history, served as Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer during the late Georgian era. This distinguished aristocrat and statesman's likeness has been beautifully captured in this sculpture. Displayed at the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom, this masterpiece holds historical significance beyond its artistic value. It was actually used as a model for a marble version placed within Arniston House in Midlothian. Chantrey's attention to detail is evident in every curve and contour that brings this portrait to life. The bust exudes power and authority while also capturing Dundas' regal demeanor. As we admire this remarkable work of art, we are transported back to a time when British society was shaped by influential individuals like Robert Dundas. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only Chantrey's skill but also the rich cultural heritage preserved within museums around the world.
