Scottish Painting Past And Present, 1620-1908 is a book written by James Lewis Caw and published in 1908. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history of Scottish painting, covering a period of almost 300 years from 1620 to 1908. The author explores the development of Scottish painting during this time, discussing the various styles, techniques, and themes that emerged and evolved over the centuries. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a particular period in Scottish painting history. The first chapter covers the early years of Scottish painting, from the 17th century to the early 18th century, while the subsequent chapters cover the 18th century, the early 19th century, and the later 19th century. Throughout the book, Caw discusses the works of many prominent Scottish painters, including Allan Ramsay, Henry Raeburn, David Wilkie, and John Everett Millais, among others. He also provides detailed analysis of some of their most famous works, examining their themes, techniques, and the cultural and historical contexts in which they were created.In addition to discussing the works of individual artists, Caw also explores broader themes in Scottish painting, such as the influence of the Scottish Enlightenment, the impact of the Industrial Revolution, and the role of Scottish painters in the wider European art world. Overall, Scottish Painting Past And Present, 1620-1908 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Scottish art. It provides a detailed and engaging account of the development of Scottish painting over several centuries, and offers insights into the cultural, social, and historical contexts in which this art was created.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
