Description: | Strong black outlines set off the glowing colours of the flowers in this scene. Thick paint adds to the rich surface of the picture. Flowers and objects grouped against a background scene were favourite subjects of William MacTaggart's in the late part of his career. The style of these paintings was influenced by the stained-glass appearance of paintings by the French artist Georges Rouault. William MacTaggart was an influential member of a group of artists working in Edinburgh. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1959 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Sir William MacTaggart | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/artonline/se... | Go to resource |
