Portrait painting

Art teacher Helene Plotkin bought the work in White Plans, New York in 1966, unaware it was by Scottish Colourist FCB Cadell.

The volunteer-led group will remain at the Priory Visitor Centre until summer 2028.

The portrait is part of an exhibition in Bishop Auckland of pitman painter Tom McGuinness's work.

The show is a celebration of the life of late portrait artist Simon Gee.

The painter quit her teaching job in 2006 after one of her pupils was murdered.

Research is underway to uncover the identity of two teenagers in 17th Century portrait.

Exactly one year after he died, a self-portrait of artist Jack Vettriano will go on display at the National Galleries in Edinburgh.
