  8. Poets' Pubby Alexander Moffat, 1980'The poets have played the leading role, both in their verse and prose, in shaping the artistic conscience of this country ... In this painting I've attempted to evoke the romance of Edinburgh's Bohemian life of the late 1950's and early 1960's ... The poets are together in a space suggesting Milne's, the Abbotsford and the Cafe Royal, the so-called 'poet's pubs.’ (Alexander Moffat) Hugh MacDiarmid, Norman MacCaig, Iain Crichton Smith,George Mackay Brown, Robert Garioch, Sorley MacLean Edwin Morgan (Scottish National Portrait Gallery)
