We are delighted to share this exhibition of previously unseen work by David Michie, recently discovered from the artist’s studio. Travelling was a great source of artistic nourishment for Michie throughout his life and in this group of early paintings we see both local and foreign scenes, captured with the same intellectual engagement and curiosity which came to define his artistic practice.
David Michie, son of Anne Redpath, was born in St Raphael in the south of France and remained there until he was eight years old. Michie’s early experiences of light, colour and landscape undeniably had an influence on his work and helped shape his love of nature and unique outlook on the world.
