Tam O' Shanter
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a renowned poem penned by the Scottish national bard, Robert Burns, published in 1790. This illustration dates back to 1866, a beautiful representation of Burns' poetical work that continues to enthrall readers and art enthusiasts alike. The image portrays a pivotal moment from the narrative, where the titular character, Tam O' Shanter, rides his grey mare on horseback, galloping through a stormy night. The fear and fright etched on his face are palpable as he attempts to escape the clutches of a coven of witches, led by a formidable witch on a black horse. In the background, the bridge's keystone is pulled by the witches, attempting to bring Tam's world crashing down. The scene is illuminated by the flash of lightning, casting eerie shadows and highlighting the intricate details of the illustration. The horses, both grey and black, are depicted in a state of frenzy, adding to the overall sense of chaos and urgency. The Victorian era, marked by its romantic and poetical works, is beautifully encapsulated in this illustration. The 1860s, in particular, saw a surge in the popularity of Burns' works, making this piece a testament to the enduring influence of Scottish literature on English literature. The illustration, with its intricate details and vivid portrayal of the scene, transports us back to the world of Burns' "Tam O' Shanter," a world of encounters with the supernatural, fear, and the thrill of the unknown. This piece is a must-have for any collector of historical illustrations, poetry, or works by Robert Burns.
