1567 Barons Confederate Dispersed Forces Grange Hume Husband Kirkcaldy Scots Surrenders Carberry
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the moment of surrender of Mary, Queen of Scots, to the Earl of Kirkcaldy of Grange in April 1567. Following the flight of her husband, Lord Bothwell, after the Battle of Carberry Hill, Mary found herself at the mercy of the Confederate Lords, led by Lord Hume, who had defeated Bothwell's forces. The queen, dressed in her royal robes and with a determined expression, stands before Kirkcaldy, who holds out his hand in a gesture of acceptance. The hill in the background, where the fateful battle took place, looms large in the scene, a reminder of the tumultuous events that had unfolded just hours before. The print, with its rich historical significance, offers a glimpse into the complex political landscape of 16th century Scotland and the intrigue that surrounded the reign of Mary Queen of Scots." "The image, created in the 19th century, is a testament to the enduring fascination with this pivotal moment in Scottish history. It is a reminder of the power struggles, alliances, and betrayals that shaped the country's past and continue to captivate historians and enthusiasts alike. The print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, invites the viewer to delve deeper into the story of Mary Queen of Scots and the events that led to her eventual downfall." "This print is an essential addition to any collection of Scottish or European history, and a must-have for anyone interested in the life and times of Mary, Queen of Scots. It is a reminder of the rich and complex history that lies hidden in the pages of the past, waiting to be explored and understood.
