A free lunchtime talk about Scottish portraiture will be held today at Aberdeen’s Maritime Museum.
Alison Fraser, lead curator at Aberdeen Art Gallery and Museums, will give the presentation from 12.30pm.
The talk coincides with the George Jamesone – Portrait Painter exhibition, which runs at the maritime museum until Sunday, November 29.
The exhibition explores the life and career of Jamesone, widely known as Scotland’s first portrait painter, and the part three generations of his family played in Aberdeen’s history.
Aberdeen Maritime Museum is hosting a number of exhibitions and events while Aberdeen Art Gallery is closed for a £30million redevelopment.
It is expected the project will be completed in the winter of 2017.
