Duncan Macmillan MA AcDipAH PhD Hon. LLD FRSA FRSE HRSA, elder son of William Miller Macmillan, is a Scottish art historian, art critic, and writer. Born in 1939, and educated at Gordonstoun School, he obtained his MA degree at the University of St Andrews, his Academic Diploma at the University of London, and his PhD at the University of Edinburgh. He is also an honorary graduate of the University of Dundee. Macmillan is Professor Emeritus of the History of Scottish Art at the University of Edinburgh, and former Curator of the Talbot Rice Gallery. He is also art critic of The Scotsman. ==Works== His works include ''Painting in Scotland: the Golden Age'' (Oxford 1986), and ''Scottish Art 1460-1990'' (Edinburgh 1990, Saltire Society Scottish Book of the Year, enlarged edition Scottish Art 1460-2000, Edinburgh 2000),〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.publishersweekly.com:8080/978-1-85158-251-8 )〕 This work has been called "perhaps the definitive statement on Scottish paintings" by Frommers Guides.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.frommers.com/destinations/scotland/551479 )〕 According to Cairns Craig, the book views Scottish art as emanating from public art practices of the Protestant Reformation. The Times Literary Supplement considered that Macmillan was excellent on the Renaissance but later prone to "a certain unevenness" and exaggerated claims to the greatness of Scottish art. Nonetheless, the "TLS" praised his "intellectual underpinning" and treatments of William Quiller Orchardson and William McTaggart.〔Thomson, Duncan. "Scotland's best". Times Literary Supplement (London, England), Friday, 5 April 1991; pg. 23; Issue 4592.〕 Macmillan's works also include ''Scottish Art in the 20th Century'' (Edinburgh 1994, Scottish Arts Council Book Award), and most recently ''Scotland's Shrine: The Scottish National War Memorial'', which is accompanied by a foreword by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II (Lund Humphries, 2014). Macmillan is author of monographs on Scottish and European artists, including Will Maclean, Steven Campbell, Elizabeth Blackadder, Victoria Crowe, and (with Tom Hewlett) of FCB Cadell, as well of numerous catalogues, articles, essays etc., on British and European art and artists. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Duncan Macmillan (art historian)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
