"There is a lot to see at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, but don’t feel pressured to look at every single picture. Some of the most important exhibits include Alexander Nasmyth’s definitive portrait of Robert Burns, Scotland’s national poet, and Richard Wilson’s portrait of the woman who saved Charles Edward Stuart from capture by the English after the failed Jacobite Rebellion. Look out for more modern classics, too, like Annie Leibovitz’s 1980 photo of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, taken the day Lennon was shot." - Freya Herring
