Scottish Art - Paintings of Scotland:
Culloden Moor
by D. Bruce Bennett
Mystic Moon Over Culloden's Spirits
In this oil-painting-style picture of Scotland, Bruce has added plenty of ground-sweeping mist and an almost surreal night sky, complete with rolling clouds that have cleared slightly to reveal a full moon. Ghostly highland warriors charge from the misty past of 1746 alongside a memorial cairn that would be erected 135 years later in 1881. (See the "face" in the stones?)

You may have noticed we have a number of Culloden paintings on our Highland Battlefields and Warriors page. Bruce has painted several versions of Culloden Moor due, in part, to his own emotions but mainly due to customers' requests for this important part of Scottish history. (See what the Jacobites Pipe & Drum Band commissioned for their 2007 Uprising! Concert.)
Do you need this picture of Scotland to remind you of your Scottish ancestors' history? Are you thinking, "Close. But not quite right"?
Then follow our other customers' footsteps and commission Bruce to paint the version of Culloden Moor that you want - maybe with the memorial cairn, but not the highland warrior ghosts. Or with the memorial cairn and the ghosts in front of your clan's marker. Just tell us your ideas, and we'll work together to create a piece of Scottish Art that's exactly what you want.

Please note that all Paintings of Scotland (and Paintings of England, too) on this site are the original artwork of U.S. artist, D. Bruce Bennett.

All we have to add to the very reasonable price of our Scottish Art is plain old U.S. postage (and state tax for Colorado residents).
