Comments: This large casket tin was manufactured for "Macfarlane Lang & Co" in 1936 by "Hudson Scott & Sons". The picture on the lid is taken from a painting by Rembrandt (1606-1669) called the "Man in Armour", painted around 1655, which is housed in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow. However, it is incorrectly titled "The Young Warrior" on the hinged lid of the tin. The picture is beautifully coloured with a lovely metallic sheen and the tin is in wonderful condition!
