Robert Burns THE COTTER'S SATURDAY NIGHT Art by Thomas Faed 1892 Antique Print
This is an illustration / print that has been taken from a book dated 1902 and is ready for framing. Measures approximately 12 x 9 1/2 inches. There is an image text summary on the attached rice paper.
Burns wrote The Cotter's Saturday Night at his Mossgiel farm, near Mauchline, during the winter of 1785-86. He adopted the lengthy Spenserian stanza form from Robert Fergusson's similarly themed 1773 poem The Farmer's Ingle to allow space to evoke his pastoral scene. An extract from another major influence, Thomas Gray's Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard , is used as an epigraph. The poem is dedicated to Robert Aiken, a successful Ayrshire lawyer who was Burns's patron at the time, and the opening stanza addresses him in advancing the poem's sentimental theme..
