Practically nothing is known in the U.S. of the art of the Scottish painter, William McTaggart. Only two of his pictures seem to have reached these shores and they are in private possession in New York. Yet his position as "the greatest artist resident in his own country" was, "fully assured by 1901." The high esteem in which he was held as a man and an artist in Scotland doubtless explains why two or three of his canvases are to be met with in private collections in Canada. McTaggart was born within sight and sound of the Atlantic.
