On the fairway: Yesterday evening, we reunited ‘North Berwick No 3’ by Sir John Lavery, with the North Berwick #golf club, almost 100 years after the work was painted.

Between 1921 and 1922 Lavery painted a number of views of North Berwick, recording the changes of sea and sky with great care. This scene looks out across the bay from a small hillock used for teeing off; beyond the coastline curves round to the Firth of Forth estuary, with the island of Fidra just visible on the right. As you can see, the view remains much the same today.

North Berwick No 3 is one of just fifteen paintings the artist made of the historic course. Frequented by the fashionable and famous, the club was introduced to Lavery via Sir Patrick Ford, an important patron and passionate advocate for Scottish art. Lavery enjoyed many an energetic game at the club with his wife Hazel and step-daughter Alice Trudeau. Whatever Lavery lacked in sporting ability he more than made up for in his efforts to capture the blustery, sweeping prospects of the links.

The painting will soon head to #London for our annual #Scottish Art sale on 18 September.
