EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Henry Erskine, a prominent Scottish politician and lawyer from the 18th century. The portrait, captured by artist W Howison in 1870, beautifully depicts Erskine's dignified presence and intellectual prowess. Henry Erskine's remarkable career spanned various prestigious roles within Scotland's political and legal spheres. Serving as Lord Advocate in two separate terms (1783-1784 and 1806-1807), he played a crucial role in shaping the country's legal system during his time. Additionally, Erskine held positions such as advocate and state councillor to the Prince of Wales in Scotland. The engraving featured here is sourced from Robert Chambers' esteemed publication, A Biographical Dictionary of Eminent Scotsmen. Published by Blackie and Son in Glasgow, Edinburgh, and London in 1870, this work aimed to celebrate influential figures who have left their mark on Scottish history. Sir Henry Raeburn was another notable figure associated with this print; however, it is important to note that he was not directly involved with its creation or production. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece today, we are reminded of the enduring legacy of individuals like Henry Erskine – statesmen who dedicated their lives to advancing justice within their countries. This photograph serves as a timeless tribute to an extraordinary man whose contributions continue to inspire generations even centuries later.
