The Fiery Cross. Illustration for The Illustrated London News, 25 July 1863.
Engraving of the painting The Fiery Cross after John Lamont Brodie. The painting illustrates the old Scottish custom of summoning clansmen to war with a burning cross, and may have been inspired by a scene from Walter Scott's The Lady of the Lake in which such a cross is carried over Loch Katrine. |
