Database of paintings of Scotland’s seas and coasts

I’m currently building a database of relevant paintings by extracting information from the public catalogues of paintings in public ownership in Scotland. The link below will openĀ  a summary table of the current records. However, to date (Oct 2020) it only includes data from 7 of the regional catalogues. The others are locked away in public libraries until the coronavirus restrictions are eased.

(Note that there are some inclusions which, though not of Scotland’s seas and coasts, are nevertheless of value for this project.)

The database includes other information and will also soon have a thumbnail image of each paintings as part of the record. The images were taken on a phone and are therefore not ideal!
