Published by M. Knoedler & Company, New York in 1879 - engraved by James Scott and painted by George Boughton.

George Henry Boughton: One of the most popular genre painters of the late nineteenth century, George Henry Boughton received his artistic education in Paris. He then initially lived and worked in New York City and was elected a full member of the National Academy of Design in 1871. Shortly thereafter, Boughton permanently moved to London, becoming an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1879 and an Academician in 1896. He was thus one of the few artists of his time to receive honours from the most prestigious associations in both America and Britain.

James Scott: One of the finest engravers of the mid and late nineteenth century, James Scott was equally talented in the fields of portraiture, historical, sporting and genre subjects. He was highly regarded both for his mezzotints and mixed method engravings.

Scott fashioned a long and distinguished career. He first gained national recognition for his portrait of the Duke of Wellington (Sir Arthur Wellesley) published in 1837. During the next fifty years he engraved large designs after the works of such contemporary painters as Daniel Maclise, Landseer and George Henry Boughton. Boughton (1833 - 1905) was one of the most successful genre painters of the late nineteenth century.

A Gallant Act was commissioned by the New York Publisher, Knoedler. Knoedler was Americas most successful publisher of original engravings and often acted in partnership with Paris and London publishers. A Gallant Act is one of James Scotts largest and most highly regarded engravings.

Can meet in the local Mount Pleasant area.
