EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the entry of Prince Charles Edward, also known as Bonnie Prince Charlie, and his Highlanders into Edinburgh after the Battle of Preston. The engraving by Thomas Duncan beautifully depicts this significant moment that took place on 21st September 1745. In this scene, we see a triumphant Prince Charles leading his loyal followers through the streets of Edinburgh. The crowd eagerly gathers to witness their arrival, reflecting the widespread support for the Jacobite cause during this rebellion. The atmosphere is electric with excitement and anticipation. The image showcases not only the prince but also highlights elements that were integral to this historical event. A cannon stands prominently in the foreground, symbolizing both power and victory. A carriage can be seen in the distance, reminding us of the importance of transportation during these times. Duncan's skillful rendering brings depth and life to this print from a private collection. It allows us to step back in time and imagine ourselves amidst those cheering crowds who welcomed their beloved prince home. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder of an era marked by political turmoil and passionate loyalty towards one's cause. It invites us to explore further into history while appreciating artistry at its finest.
