The first appearance of a series of new paintings by Alison Watt, one of Scotland's most distinguished artistsConsiders the work of celebrated eighteenth-century artist, Allan Ramsay, in a new light. The portraits of his two wives, featured in this book, are among the most-loved paintings at the National Galleries of Scotland, and this book uncovers new meaning in these worksA fascinating example of how works of art from the past influence contemporary art and artists that will heighten readers' understanding and appreciation of the artistic processFeatures a specially written short story by Andrew O'Hagan and an eloquent reflection on Watt's new works by Tom Normand. The range of responses highlights the myriad ways in which viewers can interact with and respond to artAccompanies an exhibition of Alison Watt's new works which will take place at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, Edinburgh, from May 2020 until October 2020Winner of the Book Cover Design of the Year, 2023, at Scotland's National Book AwardsA unique insight into the ways in which one of today's leading artists is inspired by great works of the past.In sixteen emphatically modern new paintings, renowned artist, Alison Watt, responds to the remarkable delicacy of the female portraits by eighteenth-century Scottish portraitist, Allan Ramsay.Watt's new works are particularly inspired by Ramsay's much-loved portrait of his wife, along with less familiar portraits and drawings. Watt shines a light on enigmatic details in Ramsay's work and has created paintings which hover between the genres of still life and portraiture.In conversation with curator Julie Lawson, Watt discusses how painters look at paintings, explains why Ramsay inspired her, and provides unique insight into her own creative process.Andrew O'Hagan responds to Watt's paintings with a new work of short fiction and art historian Tom Normand's commentary explores further layers of depth to our understanding of both artists.
