The "lost portrait" of Charles Edward Stuart is a portrait, painted in late autumn 1745 by Scottish artist Allan Ramsay, of Charles Edward Stuart, also known as the Young Pretender or Bonnie Prince Charlie.
The painting was discovered by art dealer and art historian Bendor Grosvenor at Gosford House, the home of the Earl of Wemyss near Edinburgh,[1] and was authenticated by the Ramsay authority Duncan Thomson, former Director of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery,[1] where the painting is now held.[2]
