November 1985: A Review of Roger Billcliffe’s “The Glasgow Boys” in ‘Country Life’

The review, by Nicholas Usherwood, is on page 1568 (page 210, in The British Newspaper Archive),

of Country Life, on Thursday the 14th of November, 1985, and concludes with the comments and the

question:

 

“… and so a tradition was laid down of adventure and modernism in Scottish art, which still

persists, and which we in the south often ignore. Could we start with a proper Glasgow Boys

exhibition in London? It would be a delight and a revelation.”
