EDITORS COMMENTS
This sketch represents the proposed design for a statue of Ossian, the legendary Scottish hero and narrator of James Macpherson's epic poems. The image, believed to have been created circa 1904, portrays Ossian standing proudly on an elevated rock, his small harp delicately balanced upon his shoulder. The rugged terrain and craggy cliffs in the background add to the sense of wild, untamed beauty that is synonymous with the Scottish landscape. Ossian, a figure shrouded in myth and legend, was said to be a warrior-poet of ancient Scotland, renowned for his heroic deeds and his poetic prowess. Macpherson's collection of poems, published in the late 18th century, brought Ossian to the attention of the wider world, and his tales of love, war, and adventure captured the imaginations of readers across Europe. This sketch, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the artistic vision of Ossian's portrayal during the early 20th century. The statue, if ever brought to life, would have stood as a testament to the enduring legacy of this enigmatic Scottish hero, immortalized through the power of poetry and the artistry of those who sought to bring his stories to life.
