This painting by Ian of the original artist’s study of 1882 serves to illustrate Galloway’s rural life of the period. The interpretation differs in so far as Ian adopting a much more rustic approach with a textured surface in order to give the relatively small piece, a strength and looseness of style. It will be included within Ian’s Glasgow Boys exhibition in homage to Crawhall who was a key member of the group.
