EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable silver medal from 1708, depicting the Jacobite's attempted invasion of Scotland. Crafted by an English School in the 18th century, this numismatic treasure is part of the esteemed Timothy Millett Collection. The medal commemorates James Francis Edward, Prince of Wales, also known as the Old Pretender. Born on June 10th, 1688, he was the son of James II of England and Ireland and VII of Scotland. The reverse side portrays his determined quest to reclaim his family's throne. A symbol of royal aspirations and loyalty to monarchy, this exquisite piece transports us back to a time when kings ruled with authority and prestige. It serves as a testament to the enduring power that medals hold in preserving historical events for future generations. The attempted invasion depicted on this silver medal represents a pivotal moment in Scottish history—a bold endeavor that aimed to restore rightful leadership under James Francis Edward's reign. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the courage exhibited by those who fought for their beliefs during tumultuous times. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every intricate detail with finesse and precision through their photography expertise. This photograph not only immortalizes an important artifact but also allows us to appreciate its artistic value beyond its historical significance.
