EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Map to illustrate The Battles of Pinkie 1547 and Prestonpans 1745" takes us on a historical journey through the tumultuous past of Scotland. Created by an English School in the 19th century, this print offers a detailed depiction of two significant battles that shaped Scottish history. The first battle depicted is the Battle of Pinkie in 1547. This clash between England and Scotland was part of the wider conflict known as the Rough Wooing, where King Henry VIII sought to force a marriage alliance between his son Edward VI and Mary, Queen of Scots. The map showcases the strategic positioning and movements of both armies during this fierce encounter. Moving forward almost two centuries later, we are transported to the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745. This battle marked a pivotal moment in the Jacobite Rising led by Charles Edward Stuart, also known as Bonnie Prince Charlie. The map provides insight into how this confrontation unfolded and highlights key locations involved. Through this intricate engraving, we gain a deeper understanding of these historic events that have left an indelible mark on Scottish identity. It serves as a reminder not only of Scotland's rich heritage but also its resilience in times of conflict. With every detail meticulously captured within this artwork, it invites us to explore further into these fascinating chapters from Scotland's past.
