About the Book:
In Portfolio, art historian Tom Normand takes us on a journey into the vaults to rediscover a selection of paintings – some rarely on public view – from the 400 plus works in the Diploma Collection at the Royal Scottish Academy. Through this portfolio of some of the major works of leading Scottish artists, he offers an insightful new understanding of the Diploma Collection as ‘a manifest expression of the extraordinary creativity of Scottish art’.
