Jacob de Wet wasn' t the finest of painters, so perhaps it' s as much by accident as by design that all these portraits look so similar, but the point he was trying to make is, here are the great figures of the Stuart dynasty all gathered in one room. And if you want to check out a family characteristic, have a look at the noses. But the Stuart hold on power was not at tight as the family had hoped. The Dynasty, so often rocked by religious difference lost both the Scottish and English crowns. By 1715, a distant German cousin, reliably Protestant, sat on the throne. Once again, Holyroodhouse looked a long way from the centre of power but one direct Stuart descendant would return to try to reestablish Stuart rule. He was known as the Young Pretender, but would go down in history as Bonnie Prince Charlie. |
