"Claverhouse: The Legendary Scottish Soldier and Nobleman" John Graham, also known as Claverhouse or Bonny Dundee, was a prominent figure in Scottish history. Born in 1648, he rose to fame as a Jacobite commander during the late 17th century. His military prowess and unwavering loyalty made him a formidable force on the battlefield. One of his notable achievements was leading the charge at The Battle of Drumclog in 1679. This clash between government forces and Covenanters marked a turning point in Scotland's religious struggles. George Harvey's painting captures the intensity of this historic event. Claverhouse's connection to Dundee is evident through landmarks like Mains Castle, which stands proudly today as a reminder of his legacy. However, not all aspects of his life were celebrated; an engraving depicts the tragic moment when Andrew Hislop was shot by Claverhouse. His striking portrait from 1835 showcases Claverhouse's commanding presence and determination, and is no wonder that he became an iconic figure even after his death in 1689. The National Portrait Exhibition at South Kensington featured an engraving dedicated to Claverhouse, further solidifying his place in history. Maps show us where he once roamed - particularly Dundee DD4 9 - leaving behind traces of his remarkable journey. Letters written by Claverhouse provide insight into his character and beliefs. Artists like John Graham beautifully captured these historical documents for posterity. Freeman's artwork from 1870 immortalizes this legendary soldier with great detail and reverence. Another engraving portrays him with dignity befitting a nobleman who played such a significant role during turbulent times. From Howies' edition published in 1781 to later works like those released in 1879, John Graham remains etched into Scotland's collective memory as one of its most revered soldiers and noblemen.
