The new galleries at the National in Edinburgh open on September 30.
Celebrated painting The Monarch of the Glen has been moved into its new position ahead of the opening of the Scottish galleries at the National in Edinburgh.
Works by pioneering Scottish artists such as William McTaggart, Anne Redpath, Phoebe Anna Traquair, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Glasgow Boys will be among those on display. In 1916 it was purchased by Sir Thomas Dewar and from that point on it was regularly used as a marketing image, first by Pears Soap, then by John Dewar & Sons Distillery and Glenfiddich, and later by Nestle and Baxters soup.
“The proud stag is recognisable across the world from his long career in marketing, adorning just about every kind of product imaginable, from soap and whisky to countless shortbread tins.
