Peter Howson, sisters of mercy

One of my genuine favourite paintings

On first view i interpreted it as a troubled man so irritated by the church & women preferring the peace of a rocky ending

Reality its a blind man trying to find a derelict church with women making fun of him

Surely among the best paintings of a provost anywhere, the neo-Expressionist portrait of 'Patrick Lally (1926–2018), Lord Provost of the City of Glasgow (1996–1999)' by Peter Howson (c.2000). A key takeaway from the @thebsls.bsky.social conference reception at Glasgow City Chambers last week.
Heightened portrait of an elderly man in civic attire in front of a red-tinted, moody city skyline.
