Description: Robert Grant of Lurg (d. 1771), portrait by unknown artist, c. 1769. One of at least four versions (three very similar, but one with a red tartan), this is the one from Rossdhu House (Dunbartonshire) on Loch Lomond. This version is important, as it most clearly shows the reddish-brown stripe in the tartan.
