ABOUT THE ARTIST
William McGregor was a Scottish artist in the late 19th/early 20th century. We have found very little biographical information about him in our reference books, although there is a William F. MacGregor who lived in Edinburgh and exhibited in the early 1920s, who may be him, although we cannot find any auction listings for him and his name is spelt slightly differently. Another problem we have had is that most of the auction sites confuse William McGregor with William Yorke MacGregor and show his paintings under this name, although it is obvious from the work that they are totally different and William Yorke MacGregor signed W. J. MacGregor.
-
Many of the paintings by this artist were originally sold by an Art Dealer called Ian MacNicol, who had two galleries in Glasgow, which no longer exist.
-
The painting is offered in its original 3" cream and gilt swept frame and will be supplied wired and ready to hang.
