苏格兰阿盖尔与艾尔郡风景画家

乔治·休斯顿是一位苏格兰艺术家。他是一位多产的风景画家,使用油画和水彩两种媒介。他主要描绘阿盖尔和艾尔郡的景色。 Houston was born in Dalry, North Ayrshire. In the 1880s he stayed at North Bank Cottage in Portencross, where he formed a long-lasting friendship with the noted Scottish author Neil Munro (Para Handy). In 1912 Neil Munro wrote a book entitled "Ayrshire Idylls", and this was illustrated by George Houston. It is possible that Houston and his family moved to the nearby town of Saltcoats before moving back to Dalry. Thereafter he lived at West Lynn until his death on 5 October 1947. 《艾尔郡风景》于1904年被格拉斯哥公司购买,现仍藏于格拉斯哥博物馆馆藏中。休斯顿是作家尼尔·蒙罗的朋友,并为蒙罗的著作《艾尔郡田园诗》(A&C Black,1912年)绘制插图。蒙罗还为《伯恩斯之乡》撰写了评论,该书收录了休斯顿创作的12幅蚀刻画,于1915年出版。这些蚀刻画现由北艾尔郡议会博物馆服务处收藏。 休斯顿于1889年与安妮·克尔·克劳福德结婚,夫妇二人共育有十个子女。
