 Siol nan Gaidheal - William Gillies   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
William Gillies (Liam Mac Gille Iosa) was one of the pioneers of the Scottish Nationalist movement.
Into the campaign that ensued, William Gillies entered with enthusiasm as a propagandist of the Highland Land League, not failing to maintain his support for the cause of "Tir agus Teanga" (Land and Language), when later, once more by direct action, the inadequacy and deceits of the Crofter Act of 1886 were challenged.
William Gillies, who was one of the founders, and for the first four years, editor of "The Scots Independent", died in 1932 following a period of ill health.

Gillies, who died in 1973, was a prolific painter and his work is often seen in exhibitions and collections.
Gillies was not a painter in a Cezanne tradition, but it is also necessary that we should understand his relation to the landscape he painted.
Gillies was not "only an eye"; nor did he depress the scenes he painted as many lesser artists do by recording them in a worn-out pictorial convention.
