watercolour on paper, initialled, titled verso mounted, framed and under glass image size 40cm x 58cm, overall size 59cm x 77cm Note: Florence Jamieson was born in Glasgow in 1925. The area around Morar had special significance to Florence as she was evacuated to there (from Glasgow) during the war before moving to Galashiels where she became Head Girl of St Trinnean’s, the "progressive" school, which had relocated to Galashiels from Edinburgh at the outbreak of war. St Trinnean’s was the inspiration for Ronald Searle's tales of schoolgirl horrors, although he anglicised the name to St Trinian's. Florence attended Glasgow School of Art and subsequently taught Still Life painting there. She exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy, Society of Scottish Artists, Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour and the Royal Glasgow Institute. She also held numerous joint and solo exhibitions mainly in Glasgow, Edinburgh (including at The Scottish Gallery), Perth and Ullapool. In 2014 she was one of four remaining living artists chosen to provide a selection of her work for the prestigious and widely reported ‘Glasgow Girls’ Exhibition at Kirkcudbright Town Hall. She received the Royal Scottish Academy Award and the Royal Glasgow Institute Torrance Award. Florence Jamieson's work is represented in various public collections including: The Kelvingrove Art Gallery, The Hunterian, The Scottish Arts Council, Gracefield Arts Centre (Dumfries) and The Scottish Fisheries Museum. Florence Jamieson's work rarely appears at auction.
