ARR. John Bellany CBE RA HRSA LLD (Lon) (Scottish 1942-2013) Oil on canvas, signed top left Milne’s Bar, Bellany Moffat Paintings 1965 (top right) ‘Interior scene including Alexander Moffat, Alan Bold, John Bellany (self portrait), John Tonge, Betty Smith, Bob Watt and Picasso’ 152cm x 172cm Six or seven years ago Alexander Moffat and Allan Riach were working on the book ‘Arts of Resistance’. They asked John Bellany for his permission to reproduce his little etching of Milne’s Bar, Hanover Street, Edinburgh. One week later John Bellany phoned and told them to forget the etching, he had just done a painting for them! This is the painting ‘Milnes Bar’ When we asked Alexander Moffat (featured in the painting) to comment on the painting he told us. ‘This version certainly bathes Milne’s Bar in wonderfully warm Italianate colours, John Tonge (Author of the Art of Scotland, 1938) in the background with his walking stick, Bob Watt was the manager of the Bar, a rather staid Presbyterian figure, who kept everyone in order… his word was law. A slim Alan Bold features centre stage and Betty Smith was my girlfriend in those far off days. The artist himself in his best corduroy suit seems to be keeping a low profile which was never the case. Picasso was our hero… he had to be there with us. We often had imaginary conversations with him’Provenance: Purchased directly from the artist by the present owner
