Barrhead Travel Glasgow
The Glasgow Boys (also known as the Glasgow School) rejected the traditional art of the dominant Edinburgh artistic elite in favour of the realist works of French artists such as Millais and Bastien-Lepage. They also admired the American painter, James McNeil Whistler.
The artists mentioned in this article represent the nucleus of the Glasgow Boys but there were other artists who drifted through the Group and who influenced them.
