After the battle of Falkirk, the
Jacobite army marched towards Inverness closely followed by the Duke
of Cumberland's English army. On 16th April 1746, the Duke forced a
confrontation at Culloden Moor. The Jacobite army were outnumbered and
outmaneuvered by Cumberland's army and when they turned to flee they
were cut down by the Royal Cavalry. The Duke earned the nickname the
Butcher because of his ruthless slaughter of the Jacbites at Culloden
Moor.

| The Jacobite Piper by Mark Churms. After the unsuccessful march on London, Prince Charlie retreats to the safety of Scotland. The army regroups and more men come to join the cause, including soldiers from France. However King Georges men are never far away. As dark, winter rain clouds draw in over the high ground above the town of Falkirk, the Jacobite army assembles to face Hang-man Hawleys dragoons and infantry. A piper plays on while the men of Ogilvys Regiment, in the second line, load and make ready their weapons for the coming assault. Bonnie Prince Charlie (so called for his nature, not his looks) rides down the ranks followed by Lord Elcho and his Life Guards. Red coated Irish Pickets, regulars from France, are also in reserve.

| Battle of Culloden by Mark Churms. Icy rain adds its misery to the bitter conflict on Drumossie Moor. In the shadow of the Black Isle, two English ships on the waters of the Moray Firth, await the outcome of the decisive battle. Pounded by Cumberlands gunners and raked by steady musketry, the Princes brave men can make no headway. Although the Irish and French regulars refuse to give ground, the Jacobite lines gradually disintegrate. Tired, cold and hungry men flea past Culloden House for the relative safety of Inverness. On the Scottish right the Argyll Militia, supported by Hawleys Dragoons, tear down the walls of the Culwiniac and Culchunaig enclosures in an outflanking attack. Avochies men offer some resistance but Major Gillies McBean stands alone on the breach. He cuts down more than a dozen Argylls, including Lord Robert Kerr, who lies mortally wounded, but his foes are too many. The hero eventually falls to a vicious cut to the forehead, his thigh bone is also broken. Despite the cries of a mounted officer to save that brave man, the major is ruthlessly bayonetted, his back against the wall. The victory is complete and nothing more can be done. In the distance, the Young Pretender is forced to abandon the field and Scotlands hope of claiming the British Throne. Open edition print. Image size 30 inches x 14 inches (76cm x 36cm). Price £42.00

The Jacobites charged the government troops and routed them. hundreds of Government troops were killed or wounded and over 1,000 were captured. with the Jacobite losses less than 150. With this victory Charles Edward Stuart and the Jacobite army marched southwards into England capturing the towns of Carlisle, Penrith, Lancaster and Preston and getting as far as Nottingham before lack of supplies and new recruits forced him to heads back to Scotland. Through the early morning Autumn mist, Highlanders of the Appin Regiment abandon their plaids and rush headlong across fields of stubble into the stunned ranks of Jonny Copes army. The force sent by the Crown to destroy the rebellion and capture the Pretender is itself utterly routed in a matter of minutes. The first major engagement of the uprising is a swift and complete victory for the Princes men. Except for the garrisons of Edinburgh, Stirling, Fort William and Fort Augustus, Scotland is now under the control of the Jacobites. Signed limited edition of 2500 prints.

Mark was born in Wales in 1967. He gained his degree
in Architectural Studies at Oxford Polytechnic in 1989, but soon his
interest in drawing buildings was surpassed by his love of painting horses
and in 1991 he began work as a freelance artist. His first commissions were
for sporting subjects, Polo, Racing and Hunting. However his consuming
passion for military history, particularly of the Napoleonic era, quickly
became his dominant theme, with the invaluable counsel of French military
experts (accuracy in uniform and terrain of the various battles takes a
great deal of time and consultation with many experts across Europe). Mark
Churms joined Cranston Fine Arts in 1991 and for a period of 8 years, was
commissioned for several series and special commissions. His series of the
Zulu War, and of the Battle of Waterloo were the highlights during this
period. Mark Churms' deep understanding and detailed knowledge of the period
made Mark at that time one of the most prolific and successfull artists for
Cranston Fine Arts. Cranston Fine Arts are proud with their series of superb
art prints and original paintings painted by Mark Churms in this period. We
now offer Mark Churms art prints in special 2 and 4 print packs with great
discounts as well as a number of selected original paintings at upto half
price.
