Provost James Morison Snr
A portrait painted by James Alexander of Provost James Morison Snr (1665 - February 1748). He served as Provost of Aberdeen from 1730-1731.

On his death, aged 84, the Aberdeen Journal newspaper records that he died "with an unblemished character. He behaved himself in every situation of life in such a fair, straight way, as procured him the universal love and affections of his fellow citizens, and his relations by his death lost a most affectionate parent and sincere friend."
