Ivanhoe

Original - "Le Noir Faineant in the Hermit's Cell" Highlight for spoilery information [Le Noir Faneant = King Richard the Lionheart in disguise; The hermit is Friar Tuck, from the Robin Hood tales.]

Reason

Arguably Walter Scott's most famous novel, and this is the only illustrtion we have from the novel itself.
