EDITORS COMMENTS
The Flight of Prince Charles from Rome, 18th century (19th century) captures a pivotal moment in history with its striking engraving. This print, featured in Cassells Illustrated History of England, volume IV, takes us back to the tumultuous times of the 18th century. In this scene, we witness Prince Charles Edward Stuart's daring escape from Rome under cover of darkness. The young Scottish prince is depicted on horseback, embodying both royalty and resilience as he flees towards freedom. His determination is palpable as he rides through the Italian countryside at breakneck speed. The artist skillfully portrays the intensity of the moment by using monochrome tones that enhance the sense of urgency and secrecy surrounding this clandestine flight. The silhouette of Prince Charles against the night sky adds an air of mystery to his journey. This historic event marked a turning point for Scotland and its fight for independence. Known as Bonnie Prince Charlie or The Young Pretender, Charles Edward Stuart became a symbol of hope for many Scots during this time. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, it serves as a reminder not only of one man's quest for liberty but also highlights the power that art holds in preserving our collective memory.
