Letter: Christmas card

Published on Saturday 17 December 2011 00:00

MAUREEN Henry (Letters, 16 December) attacks your coverage of First Minister Alex Salmond’s choice of a painting by SNP supporter Alasdair Gray for his Christmas card.

I am no supporter of the First Minister, but I do applaud his choice of such a fascinating Scottish artist to illustrate the card. when so many other politicians go for twee and egotistical images.

#2 oorwulliesma'Whether Alasdair Gray is an SNP supporter or not, he is one of Scotland's leading creative lights.' I do not doubt this. I am merely having a chuckle.

Whether Alasdair Gray is an SNP supporter or not, he is one of Scotland's leading creative lights. Narrow, picky wee point of view, but scarcely surprising.

On the television, I saw Mr Salmond, Mr Gray and the art work on which the Christmas card is based. Hanging is definitely too good for a painting like that.
