| Description | This drawing shows one of a number of monuments from Saddell Abbey. The Hutton Collection includes further drawings detailing the famous grave slabs and other monuments found at Saddell. Saddell Abbey is famous for its impressive sculpted stones commemorating the wealthy and powerful lords who were its patrons. For years, people thought of these large stones as coming from Iona and shipped over to Saddell. This has changed, and a carving school probably existed at Saddell Abbey itself. |
