Exhibition Announcement: The Rob Roy Drawings by June Carey
Posted:
In February 2020, June Carey was invited by The Folio Society Ltd. to create 10 pastel drawings to illustrate an edition of Sir Walter Scott’s Rob Roy. The original artworks will be shown in the RGI Kelly Gallery, 118 Douglas Street, G2 4ET.
On the project and her process June Carey said:
‘To enable me to create the drawings to illustrate Sir Walter Scott’s Rob Roy I began by reading his book on this renowned Scottish character, Rob Roy MacGregor. During my research into the history of Rob Roy, I discovered that there is very little known about him and very little artefacts to verify his existence. To this day, Rob Roy is remembered as either a Scottish Hero or a Cattle Stealing Rogue.’
The exhibition will open on the 24th July 2021.
