This study follows the iconographic trail from the early court portraits of the Italian born prince to the idealized late-Victorian images of a tartan-clad heroic Highlander. Although primarily art historical in approach, it attempts to place the portraiture within the context of recent revisionist studies on Jacobitism, eighteenth-century propaganda, and Scottish identity.
