Medieval illuminated manuscripts, (1898). 'Figs 1-4: From the 14th century.

The flowers were partly idealised, also some direct from nature, and Figs 8 and 13 give us an idea how both kinds of treatment were often combined, especially in the later Gothic time. Characteristically of this time is a deep shading, as well as the use of half tones, and the laying on of lights. Remarkable is the variety and splendour of the colours which represent the abundance and brightness of the flowers in the miniatures of the venerable manuscripts of that age'.

'Scotland for Ever'; the charge of the Scots Greys at Waterloo, 18 June 1815. The attack by the Royal Scots Greys cavalry regiment on the French 45th infantry was immortalised in this famous painting of 1881 by Lady Elizabeth Butler (1846-1933). The wife of a general as well as a popular Victorian painter, she persuaded the commander of the regiment to reconstruct the charge so she could make the painting. Some military historians doubt that the action actually took the form of the spectacular headlong charge depicted in the picture. What is known however is that the Scots Greys overpursued the French infantry, became split into disorganised small groups, and suffered heavy casualties at the hands of French cavalry formations before they were able to regain the British lines.
