Monarch of the Glen by Sir Edwin Henry Landseer is a classic art work that depicts the Scottish landscape which is what this artist became best known for. The stag included within this painting is just one of many animals captured by him within his career. Landseer was also well known for his links to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert and was one of their preferred artists, producing several works that covered their time when in Scotland. Singing Butler by Jack Vettriano is the most famous painting to date from this highly talented Scottish artist who has built up an impressive following across Europe and North America despite sometimes being rejected by art academics.

Vettriano uses paintings like The Singing Butler to cover period scenes often with romantic situations that many find instantly accesssible. Further details on Singing Butler are here. Whistlejacket by George Stubbs is one of the most impressive horse paintings of all time and underlines the technical ability of this British artist who spent considerable amounts of time studying the anatomical construction of different animals in order to make his paintings as accurate as possible. As well as horses, as seen in Whistlejacket, Stubbs also loved to paint dogs commonly as well.

When he died of cholera at the age of 76, he left more than paintings, finished and unfinished, and some 20, sketches, drawings, and watercolors. As British art historian Kenneth Clark recounts in his autobiography, Another Part of the Wood, he, as director of the National Gallery in London in the s, went through that vast building in search of rooms to serve as air-raid shelters. Somewhere in a neglected vault, he found 20 rolls of what he took to be filthy old tarpaulins.
