Today our P5 class visited the Scottish National Portrait Gallery and were asked the question, ‘Does a portrait need a face?’
Mrs Wards’ group visited the library first.
After discussing portraits and looking at some examples in the Library we went into the gallery and looked at some modern portraits.
The Three Oncologists’ painting was fascinating.
Our final task was to describe a portrait painting to our partner and then ask them to draw it. This was great fun!
Thank you very much to the staff at the gallery who looked after us so well.
