A Collector’s Eye

Many of these paintings first passed through the walls of The Scottish Gallery. It is therefore a particular pleasure to welcome them back, not simply as paintings for sale, but as old friends returning home. We are deeply grateful to the family for entrusting their private collection to us and allowing us to share it once again. As these paintings begin the next stage of their journey, we hope they will bring the same pleasure, companionship and sense of discovery to a new generation of collectors as they have to this family for so many years.
