Sir Walter Scott & some of his most famous creations

---

Illustration after E F Skinner (1865–1924) From The World's Best Books published circa 1910 & entitled Sir Walter Scott & some of his most famous creations. Not having read many Scott novels I'm not sure of all the characters, Some are fairly obvious like Rob Roy, Ivanhoe & The Black Dwarf. I'm guessing a couple of the others could be The Bride of Lammermoor & Maiden of the Mist, but I don't know. I can find no other info on this painting which the book says was painted specifically for that publication. The dog would seem highly likely to be his beloved Deerhound Maida.
