JOHN QUINTON PRINGLE (1864-1925) `ELSIE`, CIRCA 1897 three quarter length watercolour portrait miniature on ivory 9cm x 7cm Exhibited: Scottish Arts Council Exhibition `John Quinton Pringle`, 1981, Case II, c) Note: This miniature depicts Elsie Newbery, daughter of Fra Newbery, the director of Glasgow School of Art from 1885 - 1918, and appears to be an early commission for Pringle. Newbery commissioned Pringle to paint both his daughters, Elsie and Mary (Newbery Sturrrock), in miniature and such was his admiration of Pringle`s work he is noted to have written; "...I have always regarded Pringle with a peculiar and sustained pleasure, and have treasured to myself my thoughts about his work and its accomplishments...My wife and I with Pringle`s fellow students, Mr and Mrs Charles Rennie Mackintosh, early realised that somewhat of a genius was among us...My wife and I gave him his first commission and the results achieved by work with our smallest youngsters on many a Sunday morning, are among our most valued modern possessions..." His connection to Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his circle was lasting, and both Newbery and Mackintosh helped him to have his work shown at the Vienna Secessionist Exhibition of 1902 and the Whitechapel Art Gallery in London in 1914.

Taylor was born in Greenock, Scotland, one of seventeen children. He was initially apprenticed as an engineer and designer in the shipbuilding firm Scott and Co, working there until 1898. He then began studying at the Glasgow School of Art, where his fiancée, Jessie Marion King, was also a student. Taylor began work as an interior designer, being particularly influenced by the stained glass and furniture designs of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. He gained employment with the Glasgow cabinet-makers, Wylie and Lochhead, winning great acclaim for his furniture at the 1901 Glasgow International Exhibition. This brought him two major commissions, where he made prominent use of stained glass in his interiors. In 1902, Taylor and King worked together on a series of stained glass panels for the Turin International Exhibition of Modern Decorative Art and, by 1907, Taylor was working as head of furniture design at Wragge and Co, marrying King the following year. The couple then began concentrating on art, moving to Paris where they established an art school known as the Shieling atelier. Prior to her marriage, Jessie M King had purchased a house at Kirkcudbright, and at the outbreak of World War I she and Taylor returned there. Here, they became involved in the Kirkcudbright art community, which was seen as the “Scottish St Ives.” Taylor continued to play a major part in the Kirkcudbright art scene until his death in 1951

* JAMES COSGROVE FIGURES mixed media on paper, signed 88cm x 49cm Note : Born in Glasgow in 1939, Jimmy studied painting at evening classes at Glasgow School of Art under Danny Ferguson. He later gave up his career in engineering to study art full time, gaining a Diploma and Postgraduate Diploma and winning a travelling scholarship, which took him across Europe. His first studies were in printed textile design and his work, for many years thereafter, was predominantly printmaking and drawing. He taught at the Glasgow School of Art and was a founder member of the Third Eye Centre and the Print Studio in Glasgow. In 1989, two of James` large paintings were included in the survey exhibition `Scottish Art Since 1900` at the National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh. Living on the west coast of Scotland, and looking directly across to the Isle of Arran, his work is currently concerned with marine landscapes, often with an ambiguous narrative. James exhibits his work throughout Scotland and many of his paintings are in private and public collections worldwide.
