A Taste of Scotland at McTear's

With July's special auctions just around the corner we are reflecting on some of the Scottish highlights from our June's special auctions... We have something for all 'tastes' at McTear's!

The Scottish Picture Auction on Thursday 27th June, offered a selection of pictures from Scotland's best known artists from the last 200 years. This favourable auction brings great interest and keen bidders. In particular, the signed oil canvas, named 'Girl With Ducks' from the Scottish Artist Annie Muirhead Paterson (1847-1947), will make a beautiful Scottish contribution to the successful bidder who won this canvas for the bid of £1700. Look out for our International Pictures Auction on Thursday, 1 August 2013 at 06:00 PM.


Lot 1706

From the traditional, to the more modern and 'interesting' type of artwork... The Scottish Contemporary Art Auction held on Sunday 30th June added a splash of unique taste. Check out the bird in this oil canvas titled 'The Voyagers' by John Bellany. This exquisite piece had a hammer price of £4800, and will certainly be a feature in the winning bidder's home. Our next Scottish Contemporary Art Auction is on Sunday, 4 August 2013 at 02:00 PM.

Back to Scottish tradition, on Wednesday 26th June at McTear's, this 1938 Single Highland malt whisky, 'The MacAllan' in a branded wooden box, estimated between £2000 and £3000 went under the hammer for an amazing £3400- just one of numerous fantastic bids in our 'Rare & Collectable Whisky, Wine and Port' Auction. We are sure this will be saved for a more than very special occasion!
