Coming Into View: Eric Watt’s Photograph­s of Glasgow

-

★★★★

It is remarkable to think that the late Eric Watt was considered an amateur photograph­er. Capturing the second half of the 20th century in Glasgow, his works are nostalgic, evocative and delicate, and bring his subjects to life. His observatio­ns of the Dear Green Place and its residents are sensitive, and cover everything from politics to faith, leisure to work life, shopping to the River Clyde.
