EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the distinguished figure of Thomas Graham, Lord Lynedoch, a Scottish aristocrat, politician, and soldier. The portrait was created in 1870 by artist G Stoddart and is part of Robert Chambers' A Biographical Dictionary of Eminent Scotsmen. Lord Lynedoch's remarkable military career is highlighted in this image. Born in 1748, he fought valiantly during the Peninsular War from 1808 to 1814 as an aide-de-camp to General Sir John Moore. Notably, he was present at the evacuation of Moore's army from La Coruna (Corunna) in 1809 when Moore tragically lost his life. The engraving showcases Lord Lynedoch dressed in his military uniform with a sword by his side—a symbol of his bravery and dedication to serving his country. His stern expression reflects the weight of responsibility that comes with being a soldier during times of war. This portrait not only pays tribute to Lord Lynedoch but also serves as a testament to Scotland's rich history and its contribution to warfare during the Napoleonic era. It encapsulates both the physicality and character traits required for such endeavors. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by individuals like Lord Lynedoch who played pivotal roles on battlefields centuries ago. Their stories continue to inspire us today as we reflect on their courage and commitment towards defending their homeland.
