See the Scottish Colourists as you've never seen them before in a new exhibition at Perth Art Gallery celebrating rare paintings by four of the most important Scottish artists of the 20th century, some of which have never before been on public display.

Bringing together masterpieces by Francis Campbell Boileau Cadell, John Duncan Fergusson, George Leslie Hunter and Samuel John Peploe from across Scotland, we’re inviting visitors to discover exceptional paintings in an exhibition that offers a unique look into the intertwined legacies of these iconic artists.

This exhibition has been generously supported by Lyon & Turnbull and Aviva.

Tickets grant you entry to the exhibition anytime on the day of purchase, and you do not have to arrive for 10am. Please visit anytime during Perth Art Gallery’s opening hours. We recommend you book tickets for The Scottish Colourists Revealed online in advance, to avoid any potential disappointment, but we welcome walk-ups on the day, subject to availability. Under 16s and Culture Perth & Kinross Supporters go free. Discounts available for Art Pass Members and Young Scot holders.
