Artist context
About David Alan Redpath Michie
David Alan Redpath Michie (1928–2015) was a Scottish painter of international stature, based in Edinburgh. Born in Saint-Raphaël, France, he spent his working life in Scotland and was recognized with numerous honours including an OBE and election to the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA), the Royal Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts (RGI), and the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA). His body of work spans coastal and beach scenes, bird and wildlife studies, interiors, market scenes, and figure compositions. Known work titles such as The Beach at Aberdeen, Black-Throated Diver by a Shore, and Carpet Market reflect a painter drawn to both the Scottish landscape and everyday observed life. His versatility across subjects and his long association with Edinburgh's art institutions have given him a sustained presence in British and Scottish art collections.

Common works and media
David Michie is represented primarily as a painter. His recorded subjects include Scottish coastal and beach landscapes, bird and wildlife studies, interior scenes, market and street scenes, and figure compositions. Works may appear in oil on canvas, watercolour, or other painting media. Collectors may also encounter works on paper such as drawings or prints. No editioned print series or sculptural work is documented in the available sources.
Market and appraisal context
David Michie's work appears regularly at auction, with nearly 200 recorded lots. Valuation depends on identifying the specific medium — whether oil on canvas, watercolour, or work on paper — as well as subject matter, dimensions, condition, and provenance. Works with recognised subjects such as his coastal scenes, bird studies, or interiors may attract different levels of collector interest. His RSA and RGI affiliations and OBE add institutional weight. As with any twentieth-century Scottish painter, provenance documentation and condition reports are essential for appraisal accuracy. No broad price trend can be inferred from the available sources; comparable public auction records should be consulted.
