  • 'Quite Unique in His Cemetery': Sir James Caw's Gravestone
    ‘Quite unique in his cemetery’: Sir James Caw’s gravestone Dennis Smith Sir James Lewis Caw (1864-1950) is a significant figure in Scottish art history, as a curator, critic and art historian. He was also, perhaps not coincidentally, married to the eldest daughter of the artist William McTaggart RSA (1835-1910) and a practising artist in his own right. After a spell as curator of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery he was appointed director of the National Gallery of Scotland (as it then was) in 1907 and remained in post till 1939, retiring at the age of 75. Both through his acquisitions for the Gallery and as art critic of The Scotsman for seventeen years he did much to shape artistic taste in Scotland. His book Scottish painting, past and present, 1620-1908 i provided the standard history of Scottish art for much of the 20th century. In the words of Duncan Macmillan, it ‘inspired and informed Scottish readers for over eighty years’ ii. Caw also produced monographs on Ramsay, Raeburn, Sir James Guthrie and – not least – his father-in-law William McTaggart. This article sets out to solve a minor puzzle about Sir James’s burial and to throw light on some of his family and artistic connections. Newington Cemetery in south Edinburgh was originally called Newington Necropolis but also features in old records as Echo Bank Cemetery or the Southern Cemetery. (A few elderly residents still talk of ‘Eckiebank’ but Echo Bank as a locality was effectively obliterated by the development of Prestonfield housing estate. Perhaps Prestonfield has a more prestigious ring.) The cemetery was established as a commercial venture in 1846 and subsequently laid out by the architect David Cousin (1809-1878).
