About this Event

Ramsay and Edinburgh Fashion (June 7th – November 26th 2024)

A collection of Allan Ramsay’s portraits of women from NTS properties are brought together at the Georgian House for the first time.

Set against the backdrop of the fashion trade, this exhibition demonstrates how vital it was for a painter to be familiar with dress styles, materials and accessories in the mid-18th century. Fashion was a key signifier of good taste.

We move from in early 1739 portrait of a young heiress to a 1769 painting of an Edinburgh society hostess, to reveal how Ramsay used clothing to reflect a sitter’s personality.

Entry to the Exhibition is included in the admission to The Georgian House.
