Scottish Art

Throughout the year, Christie’s sales offer a rich variety of works reflecting the distinct personality of the Scotland's landscape and people. We source paintings, watercolours and sculpture executed by Scottish artists from the 16th century to the present day.

Spectacular prices have been achieved for works coming on the market in recent years. Particularly sought after artists include Henry Raeburn, Allan Ramsay, David Wilkie, the Nasmyth family, Edwin Landseer, Joseph Farquharson, the Glasgow Boys, Anne Redpath, Joan Eardley, Robin Philippson and Alberto Morrocco, to name a few.

Christie’s continues to dominate the Scottish Colourist market, a field that has been attracting an increasingly wider and more international audience. Recent successes in this field include the sale of works by Samuel J. Peploe, John D. Fergusson, Francis B. Cadell and George L. Hunter.

We offer Scottish Art in a range of carefully selected sales, most frequently in our auctions of Old Masters and 19th Century Art which take place at our London, King Street and New York salerooms. With their unmatched knowledge of the market, our distinguished specialists can recommend the very best sales platform for each of your works of art.
