George Fiddes Watt Art
George Fiddes Watt was a Scottish portrait painter and engraver, who was born in Aberdeen. Watt studied art at Gray's School of Art, Edinburgh, and the Royal Scottish Academy, Edinburgh. He was elected to the Royal Society of Arts (RSA) in 1924 and received an honorary LLD degree from the University of Aberdeen in 1955. Watt was sculpted by Henry Snell Gamley in 1912, Watt's son Albert having been sculpted by Gamley four years previously. A bronze statue of Watt by Thomas Bayliss Huxley-Jones, made in 1942, is in Aberdeen. Watt's large output includes paintings of many of the famous people of his time in Britain. An exception among the many portraits is a landscape, J. P. Inverarity Mauled by a Lioness, Somaliland. The Mezzotint engravings of Robert Bannatyne Finlay (Royal Courts of Justice) is a notable piece of his work. Watt's work was exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts from 1906–30. The portrait of his mother is in the Tate Gallery's collection. Watts’s works are exhibited at the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts (26), the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool (16), the Royal Society of Portrait Painters (45), Royal Academy of Arts, London (32) and the Royal Scottish Academy (99).
