'The Young Chavalier', Prince Charles Edward Stuart, c1730s. Also known as Bonnie Prince Charlie, and the 'Young Pretender', Charles Edward Stuart (1720-1788) was the last serious Stuart claimant to the British throne and leader of the unsuccessful Jacobite rebellion of 1745-1746. Charles's grandfather was the exiled Roman Catholic king James II, and his father, James Edward, the Old Pretender, affected in exile the title King James III. Charles was reared a Catholic and trained in the arts of war. He was forced to flee into exile after the disastrous defeat of the Scots at Culloden on 16 April 1746. Illustration from Story of the British Nation, Volume III, Walter Hutchinson, (London, c1920s).
