EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Battle of Dunbar, September 1650" transports us back to a significant moment in Scottish history. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the intensity and chaos of the battle that took place on Scottish soil. The Battle of Dunbar was fought between the forces of Oliver Cromwell's Parliamentarian army and those loyal to King Charles II during the English Civil War. The clash occurred near Dunbar Castle in Scotland in September 1650. This historic event is depicted with meticulous detail, showcasing soldiers engaged in fierce combat amidst a rugged landscape. The engraving was originally commissioned as an illustration for "The Scots Worthies" by Blackie in 1879 – a publication celebrating influential figures from Scottish history. Through digital restoration techniques, this image has been revived to its former glory, allowing us to appreciate its artistic merit while delving into Scotland's rich past. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by both sides during this tumultuous period. It serves as a poignant reminder of how conflicts shape nations and leave lasting imprints on their collective memory. With Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder presenting it here for our enjoyment, let us reflect on the resilience and strength displayed by those who fought at Dunbar – forever etching their mark on Scottish history.
