This indispensable source of reference on Scottish art contains some 11,000 entries which provide biographical information for every Scottish artist who exhibited in a major national or regional academy or society; architects of principal buildings and town plans; and leading Scottish designers, illustrators, masons, and photographers. The scope is 1660 to 1990, and much previously unpublished material is included. The development of artistic movements are traced, along with the schools of art that inspired them; and brief histories of national academies, art societies, and other organizations are given. Eighty-six b&w portraits of artists are included.
