The founding of the Royal Scottish museum Academy in 1826 was a landmark in Scottish museum painting though the contributions of the early Victorians are now disregarded. Attention tends to be focused on the pioneer achievements of William McTaggart (1835-1910), who anticipated the famous French impressionists in their preoccupation with light and ability to transfer to canvas their vivid perceptions of the out-of-doors world. After McTaggart there emerged the Glasgow school of Scottish museum painters, whose works found homes in the art galleries of the world. The impulse given by them to Scottish museum painting lives on in the works of Samuel J. Peploe (1871-1935), F. C. B. Cadell (1883-1937), Stanley Cursiter (1887- ), William G. Gillies (1898-), and Anne Redpath (1895). |
