Description
A fine and rare Silk Work picture of Robert Burns at his father's grave. Taken from an engraving by Adam Buck dated 1808. Robert Burns's father William Burns died in 1784 and Robert Burns died in 1796. The picture depicts Robert Burns reciting prose to his father who is buried at the graveyard surrounding the Auld Kirk at Alloway which was less than a mile from his birthplace, also the resting place of Robert Burns. This embroidery dates from its style and glazed black gilded mount C.1820. There is the exact engraving in the Robert Burns Birth Place Museum South Ayreshire.
