Created by Alexis Simon Belle, a renowned artist of his time, this print showcases the regal presence and charisma that defined James Stuart. As we admire this portrait, we are transported to the rugged beauty of the Highlands in Scotland. The backdrop serves as a reminder of the deep connection between Stuart and his Scottish heritage. A prominent figure in Jacobite history, he was known for his claim to the British throne and his efforts to restore Catholicism in Great Britain.
