Lyon & Turnbull

Lyon &amp; Turnbull are proud to present A Glasgow Legacy : Selected Paintings from the John Shaw Collection on 01 October 2025. &nbsp;&nbsp;Dr John McCallum Marshall Shaw (1949–2022) was a Glaswegian, international businessman, philanthropist, and passionate collector of Scottish art. His collection spanned 250 years, from <a href="/artists/allan-ramsay">Allan Ramsay</a> to <a href="/artists/stephen-conroy">Stephen Conroy</a>, reflecting his love of portraiture, landscapes, marine scenes, and depictions of Scottish life. Over 30 years of collecting Shaw acquired works by Raeburn, Ramsay, Lawrence, Lavery, Walton, McTaggart, Guthrie, Paterson, and others, linking him to Scotland wherever his career took him - from India to South Africa and beyond.Following significant gifts to the holdings of The Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery and Paisley Museum by his widow, Dr Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw in 2025, selected works are now being presented at auction. These are being offered to benefit Shaw’s alma mater, the University of Glasgow.&nbsp;Sale Contacts: Nick Curnow | 0131 557 8844 | nick.curnow@lyonandturnbull.com Alice Strang | 0131 557 8844 | alice.strang@lyonandturnbull.comBuyer's Guide:

“These exceptional windows (lots 219 & 220) by Morris & Co show the firm using the same designs from Burne-Jones in a late commission long after William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones had died. Their aesthetic beauty and impeccable quality are testament to the dedication of John Henry Dearle, Morris’s brilliant apprentice and later art director for the firm who continued to honour the legacy of Morric & Co by adapting earlier designs to new commissions.” - John Mackie, Head of Design
