Description: | The majority of the portrait collection depicts influential surgical and medical figures connected to Glasgow and the College itself. Probably the most important portrait is the unsigned 17th Century painting of King James VI and I, which is thought to be an excellent likeness. The collection also includes modern works, for example the portrait of Sir Hector Clare Cameron by one of the Glasgow Boys, George Henry (1925), and the portrait of Princess Diana by Richard Foster (1986). The College Presidents are depicted by prominent Scottish artists such as Sir Henry Raeburn, Joseph Henderson, Sir Daniel Macnee, Anne Mackintosh and Alberto Morrocco.
