The Glasgow Boys: The Glasgow School of Painting, 1875-1895

In this study, Roger Billcliffe not only treats the individual artists of the Glasgow Shool of Painting comprehensively, but also demonstrates that, as a group, the Glasgow Boys were not an isolated, local phenomenon but part of what can now be seen as a much wider tradition. Since this book's first publication in 1988, their reputation has been restored, firmly locating them at the forefront of art's first international movement.'A scholarly, comprehensive and splendidly illustrated study'. The Times 'For serious lovers or collectors of late-nineteenth-century British art, The Glasgow Boys must be seen as a vital addition to the bookshelf.' Spectator 'A beautiful production with an easy narrative style... Roger Billcliffe's credentials are distinguished and so is this book.' Arts Review 'Strongly recommended.' Sunday Telegraph
