Note: Euphen Alexander had an exciting life. Originally born in Rangoon, her family moved back to Scotland in her early years. She studied art privately with Cedric Morris and found a passion for floral depiction. An avid traveller, she painted wherever she visited. She was a major figure in Scottish Art, particularly in The Borders, as she lived in Selkirk for much of her life. Euphen was the president of The Scottish Society of Women Artists.

 

A condition report is offered as an indication of any issues visible to the naked eye. As none of our staff is a professional conservator or restorer, buyers must satisfy themselves in respect of condition and McTear’s can provide contact details of local professionals who can provide fully comprehensive expert reports, usually for a modest charge. The condition report does not form part of any contract between McTear's and the buyer, and all lots are offered "as is" in accordance with our Terms of Business available on our website.
