A Weather Eye at the McManus Art Gallery and Museum, Dundee
Posted in Art, Dundee, Museums at 12:00 on 10 May 2025
This week I visited Dundee’s McManus Art Gallery and Museum to see the exhibition A Weather Eye. I got to it late. It finishes on Sunday 11/5/25: tomorrow!
Each painting was accompanied on its information board by a Scots word to do with weather or the image depicted.
The quality and interest of course varied.
My highlights were:-
Island by James Howie; accompanied by the word ‘loom’.
Alec Grieve’s Sunset on the Tay; ‘gloamin’.
Storm at Sea Remembered by Jon Schueler; ‘doister’.
The Tay Road Bridge by James McIntosh Patrick; ‘braw’.
Stanley Cursiter’s Rain on Princes Street; ‘evendoon’.
The above were all available to look at on the website Art UK.
The one below wasn’t; so here’s my photo of it.
William Cadenhead’s New Snow, Catlaw; ‘owerblaw’.

I have a photo of 2 of these works on weather which I’ll be posting on a site called Ipernity. I didn’t make a note of the artists, so thank you very much for the names.
