1745 1746 Cassells Culloden Kilts Rebellion
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the poignant aftermath of the Battle of Culloden, which took place on April 16, 1746, in Scotland. The Jacobite rebellion, led by Prince Charles Edward Stuart, came to a tragic end as the Scottish army was defeated by the English forces under the command of Duke of Cumberland. The scene depicted in this print shows the defeated Jacobites, many of them wearing traditional Scottish kilts, surrendering their swords and flags to the victorious English troops. The Battle of Culloden is considered the last major battle to be fought on British soil. It marked the end of the First Jacobite Rising, an attempt to restore the Stuart monarchy to the British throne. The defeat of the Jacobites led to the suppression of Scottish culture and the imposition of English rule. The print, titled "Culloden Moor, April 1746," offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of war and political upheaval. The 18th century Scottish landscape is depicted in rich detail, with rolling hills, heather-covered ground, and a moody sky. The flags of both sides are prominently displayed, adding to the historical significance of the image. This print is an important reminder of Scotland's turbulent past and the events that shaped its history. It serves as a testament to the courage and determination of the men who fought in the Battle of Culloden, as well as the enduring power of tradition and national identity.
