The collection includes the greatest names in Western art such as Raphael, Titian, El Greco, Velazquez, Rembrandt, Rubens, Watteau, Tiepolo, Canova and many of the impressionists and post-impressionists. It also contains the most comprehensive collection of Scottish art with masterpieces by Ramsay, Raeburn and Wilkie, as well as a host of less familiar names who all made their own contributions to one of the most distinctive of the smaller national schools.
