About

Buy Scottish Art sells archival prints of Scottish paintings whose copyright has expired — Raeburn, the Glasgow Boys, the Scottish Colourists, the landscape painters who invented how the Highlands look to the rest of the world.

Why these pictures are not in your local gallery shop

Most of them are, in fact, in Scottish museums. What is unusual is being able to buy one framed, at a fair price, and have it arrive anywhere on earth without a shipping charge. The National Galleries of Scotland sell framed prints only to a handful of Edinburgh postcodes. We ship free, worldwide.

How the prints are made

Every print is produced to order on heavyweight archival paper with fade-resistant pigment inks, then either shipped flat and unframed for your own frame, or framed in black, wood or white and sent ready to hang. Nothing is held in stock and nothing is numbered or limited — these are open edition, and we are not going to pretend otherwise to make you hurry.

Production happens in the region you order from. A print bought in Vancouver is made in North America, not posted from Scotland.

About the artworks

We reproduce works by artists who died more than seventy years ago, whose copyright has expired under UK law. Where we say a painting hangs in the Scottish National Gallery or Kelvingrove, that is a statement of where the original is — not a claim that the institution supplies or endorses us. It doesn't, and we say so plainly.

Every product page carries one true thing about the picture: who painted it, when, and something worth knowing. If we cannot verify a story we leave it out.

The sister site

Buy Scottish Art is run by the people behind Buy Irish Art, which has been selling prints of the Irish national collection since 2016.
