Annotation below painting reads 'Sketched from nature September 1839'.
St Fillans takes its name from a Celtic missionary from Munster, in Ireland, called Faolan, known as St Fillan the Stammerer or more likely, St Fillan the Leper. He came to Scotland in the 6th Century AD and established his 'headquarters' on the hill of Dundurn, with the intention of converting the local Picts to Christianity.
