William McTaggart counts among the leading Scottish landscape painters of his time. He was born in 1835 and died in 1910. The son of a small tenant farmer, he studied at the renowned Trustees Academy in Edinburgh, where he already gained a considerable reputation and won various prizes.
McTaggart is known for his detailed and naturalistic genre paintings, which he created in the style of the Pre-Raphaelites. This painting style is strongly influenced by Italian painters who worked before Raphael and the Italian Renaissance. Especially the artists of the Trecento and Quattrocento as well as the German Nazarenes should be mentioned here. In his early works McTaggart often depicted children surrounded by nature. Later, the Scottish painter began to put people more and more into the background and to devote himself entirely to the representation of landscapes. Coastal scenes and seascapes were his preferred motifs. Like the Impressionists, McTaggart painted exclusively outdoors, which is why most of his works can be classified as open-air painting. He is also called a Scottish Impressionist because he was one of the first Scotsmen to paint outdoors.
The Scottish landscape painter is known for his strong and dynamic brushstroke and the use of expressive colours. His main influences include the works of John Constable and William Turner, two artists he greatly admired. But impressionism did not pass him by without leaving its mark, which is especially evident in his painting "The Tempest". A painting that lives from dynamics, light moods and fleeting moments. McTaggert preferred to capture landscapes in which he often stayed. These include the coastal areas and landscapes of Kintyre, Midlothian and East Lothian. In 1889 he moved to a house in Lasswade, near which the Moorfoot Hills were located. In 1870 he became a full member of the Royal Scottish Academy, a private institution of important artists and architects. Here he trained the Scottish painter James Campbell Noble, who was known for his depiction of marine scenes.
