EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white etching, titled "Rob Roy, 19th century" transports us back to the legendary world of Scottish outlaw Robert Roy MacGregor. The print, created by Leon Richeton in the late 19th century, measures 33x24.1 cm and is housed at The McManus in Dundee, UK. The image depicts Rob Roy seated with an air of quiet strength and determination. Dressed in traditional Scottish attire, he wears a plaid tartan cloth that drapes over his shoulder and across his chest. His iconic tam o' shanter hat adds a touch of rugged charm to his appearance. As a folk hero revered for his rebellious spirit against English oppression during the early 18th century, Rob Roy's legacy lives on through this evocative artwork. The artist John Pettie skillfully captures the essence of this historical figure through intricate details and masterful shading. This monochrome portrait not only showcases Rob Roy's physical features but also hints at the depth of character hidden within him. His piercing gaze seems to reflect both resilience and vulnerability simultaneously. Whether you are drawn to Scottish history or simply appreciate fine artistry, this print offers a glimpse into the life of one of Scotland's most celebrated figures. It serves as a powerful reminder that even outlaws can become heroes when they fight for what they believe in.
