Footnote
Celebrated for her jewel-toned still lifes and sensitive landscapes, Mary Armour's work is instantly recognisable. Her mature style developed during a tenure teaching still life painting at Glasgow School of Art between 1951-61, where she was exposed to modern European artistic ideas. This inspired her subsequent work profoundly.
