Scottish National Portrait Gallery

1 Queen Street
0131 624 6200

Designed by Sir Robert Rowand Anderson, the neo-Gothic red sandstone building that houses the Scottish National Portrait Gallery was built in the 1880's. Although not all of the artists whose works appear here are Scottish, all of the subjects are. Classic works such as Mary, Queen of Scots, Allan Ramsay's portrait of David Hume, Alexander Nasmyth's portrait of Robert Burns, and Sir Henry Raeburn's Sir Walter Scott hang alongside more modern icons like John Bellany's Sean Connery, David Mach's Alex Ferguson and Calum Colvin's constructed portrait photograph of James MacMillan.
