"The Scarlet Pimpernel to the Rescue" is a notable illustration by A.C. Michael, a prominent artist known for his contributions to the visual representation of literary works in the early 20th century. This particular illustration is part of a series created for the novel "The Scarlet Pimpernel" by Baroness Emma Orczy. The novel, first published in 1905, is set during the Reign of Terror following the start of the French Revolution and introduces the character of Sir Percy Blakeney, a dashing English aristocrat who leads a double life as the Scarlet Pimpernel, a pseudonymous rescuer of aristocrats before they are sent to the guillotine.

A.C. Michael's illustration captures a pivotal moment in the narrative, embodying the drama and tension of the rescue missions that are central to the story's plot. The artwork is characterized by its fine detail, dynamic composition, and the ability to convey the emotional intensity of the scene. It not only enhances the readers' experience by providing a visual counterpart to Orczy's prose but also contributes to the enduring image of the Scarlet Pimpernel as a symbol of heroism and adventure.

The illustration was likely included in one of the subsequent editions of the novel, as the character and the story gained popularity, leading to numerous editions, translations, and adaptations. A.C. Michael's work, along with other illustrations for "The Scarlet Pimpernel," has been instrumental in shaping the visual culture surrounding Orczy's literary creation and has helped to cement the novel's place as a classic in British literature. The image of the Scarlet Pimpernel in action, as depicted by Michael, remains an iconic representation of the character and the period in which the story is set.
