Tom Scott (painter)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tom Scott RSA (1854-1927) was a painter, primarily a watercolourist born in Selkirk in the Scottish Borders.
Known as the 'Borders Painter', his historical paintings reflect his lifelong interest in the archaeology and history of the area. His highly accomplished work is mainly depictions of the landscapes of Southern Scotland, and illustrative tableaux derived from local Legend and story.
Drawing from both the Arts and Crafts movement and the work of the Romantic School, he is however, little known outside of Scotland, where he has a loyal following.
