There will also be works by Alfred East, Gerald Brockhurst, Frank Dicksee, Alfred Sisley, Lucien Pissaro and Samuel Palmer. Lithographs by Paul Nash, C.R.W. Nevinson and Eric Ravilious will show scenes from the First and Second World Wars.

Paintings by David Wilkie and landscapes by David Young Cameron and Waller Hugh Paton will be exhibited along with William Hamilton's painting of Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots, and portraits by Raeburn and Ramsay.
