Title
The Horse Fair in the Grassmarket
Description
A vibrant and lively painting of a horse fair in the Grass Market, Edinburgh. The Horse Fair in the Grassmarket took place in November and here the artist animates it with vibrant light, vitality and movement in a market place seething with horses and farmers. The sign for the Carrier from his native village, Skirling, being put up over the White Hart Tavern, adds humorous detail.
