Hidden Heritage
Crail’s Art & Artists
Crail’s Art & Artists
The exhibition included paintings that the Museum holds, which are not normally on display. It featured, along with Crail Artists, such well-known names as Joseph Milne, David Owen Martin and others from the Glasgow Boys. Paintings by Reginald Duncan were also featured, he was a very talented young artist who sadly died at the age of 24 after a long illness.
Last year's exhibition aimed to raise funds to have the David Owen Martin painting of the Crail Harbour restored. This painting was originally won by a lady in a raffle for a one pound ticket. She gifted it to the museum with the provisory that it always remains in Crail.
Between donations made on our Crowdfunder page and donations given directly to the Museum we raised enough to have the painting restored. Restoration is now complete and the restored painting was unveiled as part of our 2025 Exhibition: "More Hidden Heritage".
