TAM O'SHANTER, BY THE THORN ABOON THE WELL
pencil and wash, signed in pencil
41cm x 59cm
Mounted, framed and under glass
Note: Alexander Goudie famously painted a series of 54 Tam O'Shanter paintings which were ''saved for the nation'' by Sir Brian Souter and Sir Tom Hunter for a reported £500,000 and which were then donated to South Ayrshire Art Gallery, Rozelle House, Alloway. It's likely that this picture is a study for one of the 54 paintings.
