EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the essence of Sir Walter Scott, a prominent figure in Scottish literature. The portrait, created by Francis Legatt Chantrey and published in 1833, showcases Scott's distinguished profile with remarkable detail. Sir Walter Scott, also known as the Border Minstrel, the Wizard of the North, and the Great Magician, was a renowned Scottish novelist, poet, historian, and biographer. His contributions to literature have left an indelible mark on literary history. In this print, Scott is depicted in a bust-like form made from marble. His face exudes wisdom and intellect as he gazes into the distance. Adorned in traditional tartan plaid attire - symbolizing his deep connection to Scotland - he embodies both pride for his heritage and reverence for his craft. The artist has skillfully captured not only Scott's physical features but also his aura of creativity and imagination that permeated through his writings. This image serves as a testament to Scott's significant influence on romanticism and historical fiction during the 18th century. Preserved within a private collection until now, this print allows us to glimpse into the world of one of Scotland's most celebrated authors. It stands as a timeless tribute to Sir Walter Scott's enduring legacy as an accomplished writer and knight whose works continue to captivate readers around the globe.
