THE works of one of the most significant Scottish artists of the modern age go on display from today in a major new exhibition.
Some of Scottish Colourist John Duncan Fergusson’s best-known paintings will be on show at Perth Museum and Art Gallery, including The Grey Hat, Le Manteau Chinois and At My Studio Window.
Culture Perth and Kinross has also received on loan The Pool of London by Andre Derain from Tate; On the French Coast by Samuel John Peploe from National Galleries Scotland; and Portrait of Greta Moll by Henri Matisse from the National Gallery in London.
In addition, The Boatbuilders, an iconic painting by the acclaimed Scottish artist John Bellany will go on display as part of the gallery’s latest Icons exhibition, which will also feature other works by Bellany.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
