Born 1909 – Died 1984
MacQuoid was born in Glasgow. He attended art schools in Belfast, Nantwich and London. His first solo show was held in Belfast in 1924, when he was only 14. A well-known portrait artist from the 1930s (his sitters included Osbert Sitwell, Lady Cunard and Sir Edward Marsh) he developed a lifelong admiration for the oils of John Constable. In 1969 he moved to Ireland.
