From Thomas Hamilton to contemporary artists Tom Normand traces the
200 year history of the Royal Scottish Academy. Featuring both men
and women, short summaries precede each reproduction and orient the
reader to particular points of interest within each art work. The
artist’s history is related side by side with that of the Academy
and, as such, they complement descriptions of the paintings. The
book chronologically captures different periods as they influenced
the style of what was produced in the Academy. Looking forward
Normand states that ‘the Academy, in its history, has been a
vital part of that international role, freely exhibiting the newest
and the best of modern art and respecting the multi-dimensional
approaches of contemporary art’. It is this vitality in the
Scottish art scene that will sustain its visual culture in the
future and place it on the international stage.
