About the artist
Jimmy McBeath was born in Portsoy, Banffshire, in 1894. Having left school at 13, he was fee’d at St Brandon’s Fair to a farm in the parish of Deskford. According to Jimmy it was “All hard slavery work - up at five in the morning to sort your horse, and you didn’t fasten your boots until after you got your breakfast. You went in at half past five and got a cog o’ meal and milk and bread, oat-cakes and a cup o’ tea wi’ it. You had to carry on fae that, from six till twelve o clock and started again tae one.
