Anne of Geierstein (1829) is set in Central Europe in the fifteenth century. With this novel Scott concludes the unfinished historical business of Quentin Durward, working on a larger canvas with broader brush-stokes and generally with more sombre colors. The novel illustrates the darkening of Scott's historical vision in the final part of his career. It is also a remarkable manifestation of the way in which the scope of his imaginative vision continued to expand even as his physical powers declined.
