William Ewart Lockhart

[2] He settled in Edinburgh, and, in 1867, paid the first of several visits to Spain, where he found material for some of his finest works.

[4] His pictures in both oil and water-colour are marked by considerable bravura of execution and much brilliance of colour, but are rather wanting in refinement and subtlety.

On the whole, Spanish and Majorca pictures, such as 'The Cid and the Five Moorish Kings,' 'A Church Lottery in Spain,' 'The Orange Harvest, Majorca,' and 'The Swine-herd' are his best and most characteristic works ; of his portraits, those of Lord Peel (bronze medal at the Salon), Mr. A. J. Balfour, and Mr. John Polson may be mentioned.

The Kepplestone Collection, Aberdeen Art Gallery, includes an autograph portrait of Lockhart.
