Bonnet worn by the Pretender, at Holyrood, 1845. Creator: Unknown
Bonnet worn by the Pretender, at Holyrood, 1845. Feathered crown worn by pretender to the English throne Charles Edward Stuart, known as Bonnie Prince Charlie or the Young Pretender, at the ball given at Holyrood [Palace] just before the battle of Prestonpans; of which his biographer says: " the fatigues of the preceding days, and the anxiety that could not but be felt with respect to the coming battle, were alike unable to depress the buoyant spirits of Charles, and to impair his natural vivacity and power of pleasing. The enthusiasm of the ladies was unbounded, and many a fair waverer was, perhaps, confirmed in her devotion to the House of Stuart, by the graceful dancing of so handsome a representative of Scotlands rightful King." From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a bonnet worn by the Pretender, Charles Edward Stuart, at Holyrood in 1845. The feathered crown adorning his head adds an air of regality to this historical artifact. Known as Bonnie Prince Charlie or the Young Pretender, Charles Edward Stuart was a pretender to the English throne during the 18th century. The bonnet was worn by Charles just before the battle of Prestonpans, where his biographer describes him as undeterred by fatigue and anxiety. Despite these challenges, he maintained his buoyant spirits and natural charm that captivated all those around him. The ladies present at Holyrood were particularly enamored with his graceful dancing, which further solidified their devotion to the House of Stuart. This engraving from "Illustrated London News" in 1845 offers us a glimpse into this significant moment in British history. It transports us back to a time when loyalty and admiration for royalty were fervently expressed through fashion and social gatherings. As we admire this remarkable piece of clothing, we are reminded of its symbolic significance - not only as an accessory worn by a prince but also as a testament to Scotland's unwavering support for their rightful king. This print serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of an era filled with political intrigue and passionate allegiances. Through this image captured by an unknown creator, we are granted access to a world long gone but forever preserved in our collective memory.
