Ann Redpath: Anne Redpath, RSA (1895-1965) is one of the best known Scottish artists of the 20th century, noted in particular for her still life subjects. She was born in Galashiels, Selkirk, and studied at Edinburgh College of Art from 1913.  She gained a travelling scholarship in 1919 which enabled her to study and paint in Belgium, France and Italy. She married in 1920 and two of her sons, David Michie and Alastair Michie, were later to become well known artists. After living in France for a number of years Redpath returned to Edinburgh in 1934 and began to paint actively again, exhibiting widely including at the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA), the Royal Academy (from 1946), the Royal Society of British Artists, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters (ROI), and the Society of Scottish Painters. She was elected a full member of the RSA in 1952, ROI 1948, and ARA 1960. Her work is represented in many public galleries in the UK and abroad, including the Tate Gallery, the Royal Academy, Aberdeen Art Gallery and the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art which held a retrospective exhibition in 1996-97. Although best known as a painter in oils, she also worked in watercolour and produced a number of lithographs in the 1950s.
