Study Visit: The Two Roberts

Join Jim Cowan on the 29 November in Edinburgh to explore the work the Scottish artists Robert MacBryde and Robert Colquhoun.
Colquhoun specialised in figure painting, MacBryde in still-life. They took the London art-world by storm in the 1940s, with sell-out exhibitions of their paintings, but by the 1960s their position as two of the country’s most celebrated artists had been eclipsed, and this will be the first major retrospective devoted to their work.
Hard drinking, volatile and uncompromising, their lives were as passionate and compelling as their art.
