This snow scene of Queen Margaret’s College in Glasgow was painted by Muirhead Bone, known then primarily as a printmaker, who had studied at the Glasgow School of Art, before he left for London with his future wife, Gertrude Helena, fellow artist Francis Dodd's sister, in 1901. It was called 'The Botanical Gardens, Glasgow’, when acquired by the Contemporary Art Society by 1913 until the artist's brother, James Bone (1872-1962) informed the Tate Gallery of its original title and correct location in 1958.
