Alexander Jamieson (1873–1937) was a Scottish painter renowned for his Impressionistic landscapes and town scenes. Born on 23 September 1873 in Glasgow, he trained at the Haldane Academy, now part of the Glasgow School of Art. In 1898, he won a scholarship to study in Paris, where he immersed himself in the progressive atmosphere of French painting, developing a broad Impressionistic style.
During his time in Paris, Jamieson met many of the Impressionist painters and was introduced to their techniques, such as painting "au premier coup" and "wet-in-wet," which contributed to the characteristic glossiness of his works. He also met English painter Gertrude (Biddy) Macdonald; they married in 1907 and settled in a studio in South Kensington, London.
Jamieson exhibited regularly at institutions including the New English Art Club, the Royal Academy, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, and the Royal Scottish Academy. He held a successful solo exhibition at the Carfax Gallery in London in 1912. His post-war years were spent in Weston Turville, Buckinghamshire, where he continued to paint and exhibit. He passed away in London on 2 May 1937, aged 63, and is buried in the churchyard of St. Mary the Virgin in Weston Turville.
