George Jamesone

1589/1590–1644

(b Aberdeen, 1589/90; d Aberdeen, Sep./Dec. 1644). Scottish portrait painter, active in Aberdeen and Edinburgh. His name has been indiscriminately attached to a great number of Scottish portraits of the period, as he is virtually the only 17th-century Scottish painter about whom anything is known.
