William (Willy) Alexander Cuthbertson (1882-1968). Edinburgh born painter of portraits and genre who in about 1909 moved to Glasgow and eventually to Croydon in Surrey. He exhibited at the RA , RSA and GI. Cuthbertson was the eldest of the three children of William Cuthbertson and his wife Elizabeth Thomson Cuthbertson. The 1901 Census records Cuthbertson as an 18 year old Art Student (Painter). He spent 1901 studying at l’Academie Julian in Paris. The following year, 1902, he was appointed Ship’s Artist aboard the research vessel S.Y. ‘Scotia’ under command of Britain’s most experienced polar explorer William Speirs Bruce (1867-1921). On his return to Scotland in July 1904, Cuthbertson joined the Life School where he won various awards including a 1909 Carnegie Travel Scholarship which allowed him to visit and paint in Spain. Here he met Katie Grace Price (1892-1984) whom he subsequently married and the couple settled in England. Cuthbertson served with the Royal Navy during the First World War.

Please note. Due to the fragile nature of old frames and glass, our shippers do not provide insurance for any damage caused during transit. We go to great lengths to ensure each painting is packed and protected to a very high standard but sadly cannot compensate or refund for any damage occurring to frames or glass during transit. Therefore the frame and any glass is a gift to you with zero value and you are bidding on the artwork only.

Due to Brexit, there are delays at EU customs borders though the situation is improving. Please do not blame me for delays or any customs duty payable. I really appreciate your understanding and patience. Steve.
