Peter Ingram Weir

Peter Ingram Weir (1864–1943) was a Scottish artist noted for his watercolour paintings of Scottish landscapes.

He exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours between 1885–1888.[1]

His best known work is perhaps his pair of watercolours depicting Granton Pier in the late 19th century, which were discovered in a second hand shop in Australia before being sold at Shapes auction house, Edinburgh in 2013.[2]
