Title Painting of Elizabeth More (alt. Mure) of Rowallan
Description A black and white photograph of a painting of a Elizabeth More of Rowallan by British painter Peter Paillou II in 1811 (c.1757-c.1831) surrounded by wording in Latin. It is set in an elaborate frame surmounted by the coat of arms of the Order of the Thistle.

The Latin wording around her reads 'Elizabeth Mvre Filia dom Adam Mvre Militis. et. Ioan de Ganzelston Regina. Scoturvm Anno Domine M.CCC.l.XXI.'
This roughly translates into English as ' Elizabeth Mure, daughter of Adam Mure, a soldier, and Queen Joan of Ganzelston of the Scots, AD 1371'.
