EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the electric atmosphere of the Jacobite rising of 1745, as Margaret Fergusson Murray, a passionate supporter of the Old Pretender's cause and wife of the later turncoat John Murray of Broughton, recruits Scottish men to join the rebellion against the British monarchy. The scene unfolds on a bustling Scottish street, where the announcement of the Pretender's return has ignited a fervor among the people. Margaret, dressed in the traditional Scottish attire, distributes white cockades - the symbol of the Jacobite cause - to eager recruits, who don the ribbons with pride and enthusiasm. In the background, horses and soldiers ready for battle, their weapons at the ready. The Old Pretender, James Francis Edward Stuart, had arrived in Scotland on the 13th of September, and on the 17th, he was proclaimed King James VIII at the Mercat Cross in Edinburgh. The image of Margaret Murray, a woman of conviction and determination, rallying her fellow Scots to the cause, encapsulates the spirit of the Jacobite rebellion and the deep-rooted desire for a return to the Stuart monarchy in Scotland during the 1740s.
