EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph, titled "Soldiers driving away people who have met to worship in the Scottish hills" by John Jellicoe, transports us back to a tumultuous period in Scottish history. The image depicts a scene from the 17th century when soldiers were tasked with dispersing a gathering of worshippers amidst the breathtaking Scottish hills. The composition exudes both beauty and tension as the soldiers, clad in their military regalia, stand firm against a backdrop of green pastures and rolling hills. Their presence is juxtaposed against the peaceful congregation that has gathered for worship. It is evident that this encounter between faith and authority carries profound implications. This artwork was featured in E. L. Hoskyn's book "More Pictures of English History" published in London in 1914. Through Jellicoe's skilled hand, we are transported into an era where religious freedom clashed with political control. As we observe this print from our private collection, we are reminded of the struggles faced by those seeking spiritual solace during times of social unrest. This image serves as a poignant reminder of how power dynamics can impact even the most sacred aspects of human life. With its rich historical context and artistic mastery, this lithograph invites us to reflect on themes such as religious persecution, resilience, and the enduring spirit that persists even amid adversity.
