Duncan Cameron (1837 – 1916), the Light of the Scottish Coasts. A highly renowned Scottish landscape painter during the Victorian era, Duncan Cameron was trained at the prestigious Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh. While he is historically celebrated for his masterful views of the lochs and hills of Perthshire, this view of the Forfarshire coast brilliantly illustrates the extent of his talent when he turns to the maritime landscapes of his country. At the crossroads of Romanticism and Impressionism, this work crystallises all that makes the artist's strength. Network of healthy age cracks.
