After Culloden: Rebel-Hunting

After Culloden: Rebel-Hunting by Seymour Lucas. Exhibited at the 1884 Royal Academy. Chantrey Bequest. Oil on canvas. Source: Magazine of Art, which comments, “Seymour Lucas, in After Culloden — . . . purchased for the Chantrey Collection — has produced what seems to us his best work; it is a little trite and commonplace in subject, but it is well grouped and well composed, it has character and action, and it is good in colour and well painted” (351).
