We all know your fandomโ€™s deep love for Scottish history, but a real-life Jacobite-era treasure genuinely needs your help.
Meet Sir John Gordon, or rather, his ยฃ3 million marble likeness, the Bouchardon Bust. Sculpted in Rome in 1728, this is a literal face from the era of Jamie and Claire. At the exact moment Sir John was sitting for this portrait, Rome was a hotbed of exiled Jacobite intrigue, and he later became a prominent Scottish politician during the tumultuous years of the 1745 Rising.

Having been bought by our local council for a mere ยฃ5. In 1998, it was 'rediscovered' in a Highland storage shed, where it had been used as an ashtray; some even tell it had been downgraded to a doorstop!

Right now, a temporary export bar is stopping the bust from being sold abroad to a private collector. We are on a ticking clock to raise the funds needed to save this piece of Scottish heritage and keep it in Scotland where it belongs.

Clan Outlander is legendary for its generosity and passion for preserving Scotlandโ€™s past. Letโ€™s rally together to protect Sir John before he's lost to a private gallery forever.
