Artist: David Ewans          

Title: Scottish Landscape - signed painting in acrylic on board, framed    

Description: David J Ewans is a well known Scottish painter of coastal scenes and landscapes in oil.  He exhibited twenty works at the Royal Scottish Academy from 1955 to 1970, and lived variously in Edinburgh, Lower Largo (Fife), and Dumfries.  He often painted in Arbroath, Pittenweem, St Monance, and later in Kirkcudbright and Southerness in south-west Scotland.  David Ewans' work is held in several public collections in Scotland, including Aberdeen Art Gallery and the University of Dundee.

The present painting is an original acrylic on board measuring 24 x 36 inches and about 30 x 42 inches in what we believe to be the original frame. The work is signed lower right and dated 1966. The painting is in very good original condition, having been cleaned professionally in July 2009. The frame is in just about serviceable condition for its age, with some losses to the moulding and some areas of staining to the hessian slip.

Although the present painting does not have a label, we feel sure that it is a Scottish landscape. In view of the subject matter, we do wonder whether it is in fact the painting titled 'Erosion' exhibited by Ewans at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1966...
