"A Tour in Scotland, and Voyage to the Hebrides 1772" is a significant travelogue written by the Welsh naturalist and antiquarian Thomas Pennant. This work is an extensive account of Pennant's journey through Scotland and the Hebrides, offering a vivid portrayal of the landscapes, people, and culture of 18th-century Scotland. Among the numerous illustrations and descriptions in this travelogue, two notable works are "Sheelins in Jura and a distant view of the Paps" and "A Cottage of Islay."

"Sheelins in Jura and a distant view of the Paps" captures the rugged beauty of the Isle of Jura, one of the Inner Hebrides islands. The term "Sheelins" refers to small huts or shelters, which were commonly used by the local population. The illustration provides a picturesque view of these humble structures set against the dramatic backdrop of the Paps of Jura, a trio of distinctive conical mountains that dominate the island's landscape. This depiction not only highlights the natural splendor of Jura but also offers insight into the traditional way of life of its inhabitants.

"A Cottage of Islay" presents a glimpse into the domestic architecture and rural life on the Isle of Islay, another island in the Inner Hebrides. The illustration showcases a typical cottage, characterized by its simple, functional design, which was well-suited to the island's harsh weather conditions. This image serves as a valuable historical record of the vernacular architecture of the time and provides context to the living conditions and daily experiences of the island's residents.

Together, these illustrations from Pennant's travelogue offer a rich visual and descriptive account of the Scottish islands, contributing to our understanding of the region's cultural and natural heritage during the 18th century. Pennant's work remains an important resource for historians, geographers, and enthusiasts of Scottish history and culture.
