Perth Art Gallery and the JD Fergusson Art Foundation are delighted to announce the publications of a new, revised and enlarged edition of Roger Billcliffe’s much-admired, ground-breaking book on the Scottish Colourists, The Scottish Colourists & J.D. Fergusson at Perth Art Gallery, published to coincide with the 2026 exhibition, The Scottish Colourists Revealed.

Describing the lives and analysing the work of Cadell, Fergusson, Hunter and Peploe, it contains over 270 images, including an additional section illustrating all the oil paintings by J.D. Fergusson in the collection of Perth Art Gallery, making it a must-have for anyone interested in Scottish art of the twentieth century and a wonderful introduction to these four painters for those not yet familiar with their work.

You can buy the book on its own for £19.95, or purchase with an exhibition ticket for The Scottish Colourists Revealed for the same price. This offer runs until Monday 26 October 2026.

If you have purchased a ticket in advance with Perthshire Box Office, you upgrade your tickets on arrival at the front desk.

The print run of this book has been generously supported by the J.D. Fergusson Art Foundation.
