Following in the footsteps of 19th century artist and engraver William Daniell, Uglow will recreate his extensive journeys around Scotland’s coastline. Sketching 150 sites from Gretna and Orkney to North Berwick, Uglow will produce paintings and prints which form a visual record of the coast, in emulation of Daniell’s book of illustrations and engravings, published in 1814.
