New beautiful, illustrated art book of a series of new paintings by artist Alison Watt. This is the first appearance in print of a series of brand-new paintings by Alison Watt, one of Scotland’s most distinguished artists. 

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, 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 works.
