A Collector’s Eye

3 September 2026 - 26 September 2026

Our Collector’s Eye series celebrates the vital relationship between gallery, artist, and collector. Art collections are testaments to lives well lived, surrounded by works that have brought enduring pleasure.

An Edinburgh Collection brings together paintings acquired over three generations of the same Edinburgh family. It grew not according to a predetermined plan, but through instinct, affection, and the simple pleasure of living with art. Together, the paintings trace the personal geography of one family, from Edinburgh to the west coast and islands of Scotland, while reflecting relationships with artists, galleries, and the cultural life of the city.
