Patriarch of one of Scotland’s most accomplished families, Alexander Nasmyth is considered the founder of Scottish landscape painting. His immediate family included seven artists and one important engineer; James. From a young age, Alexander Nasmyth’s children were encouraged to assist in the artist’s studio, and it is known that they would sometimes paint cooperatively on the same piece.
