A sensitive look at Glasgow in the 20th century

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.

Coming Into View: Eric Watt’s Photographs of Glasgow, by Isobel McDonald and Alison Brown, published by Glasgow Museums Publishing, £12.99.
