Description: | A collection of portraits from the 17th century to the present day. The collection includes the earliest work in the University of Dundee's Fine Art Collections, a portrait of Dundee doctor David Kinloch painted by an unknown heraldic artist in 1614. Other portraits include works by Sir Henry Raeburn, Sir David Wilkie, Robert Scott Lauder, Sir Peter Lely, John Linnell and James Sant. The University also has a tradition of commissioning portraits of its Principals - these include works by David S Ewart, Alberto Morrocco, James McIntosh Patrick and Calum Colvin. There are also portraits of various other people connected to the University, including former rector Peter Ustinov (a bronze sculpture by Enzo Plazzotta); Chancellors HM The Queen Mother (by Morrocco) and Sir James Black (Helene Train); and Professors D'Arcy Thompson (by Ewart), JA Ewing (by Henry Lintott) and JEA Steggall (by Stewart Carmichael). | Format: | oil paintings chalk pastel watercolours pen and ink photograph pencil drawings bronze sculpture | Subjects: | Fine Art | Source: | University of Dundee | Address: | 5-7 Hawkhill Place,
