Add to album

This is the obverse of a bronze medal commemorating Sir Walter Scott. Dating from 1821, the medal was made by T. Webb and B.R. Faulkner.

The obverse depicts a bust of Scott surrounded by the text, 'Sir Walter Scott Bart'.

Scott's first novel 'Waverley' was published anonymously in 1814. It, and subsequent historical novels, were very successful. His works were based on religious and political conflict and clashes between Scots and English and Highland and Lowland.
