In this artwork, how is the Painting discussed?
Swiss-born artist David Morier began working for the Duke of Cumberland in 1747, and continued to receive payments from him until 1767. At an unknown date before 1765 he completed An Incident in the Rebellion of 1745. The painting is thought to be one of a set of four he painted for Cumberland that depict battle scenes.Morier may have been present at the Battle of Culloden. Many sources state he used Jacobite prisoners as models, but this is disputed, and claimed to be a legend that arose in the 19th century.
