About the Item

Born in London to Scottish parents, Peter Howson (b. 1958) has spent much of his life in Scotland and attended the Glasgow School of Art, receiving tutelage from Sandy Moffat. Religious themes run throughout Howson’s work, especially linked to his conversion to Christianity and treatment for addiction in 2000. In fact, Howson’s very first painting at the age of six was of the crucifixion. He never shied away from depicting pain within his art; he was the official British war artist in 1993 during the Bosnian War. He also created a British postage stamp in 1999, in addition to creating album art for multiple bands. Now, Howson’s artworks reside in many collections around the world, including the Hunterian Art Gallery, Guildhall Gallery, National Galleries of Scotland, and Fitzwilliam Museum.
