Welcome to the Glasgow Life Photo Library


About Us

The Glasgow Life Photo Library holds images from the unique collections of Glasgow Life Museums and the Mitchell Library Special Collections and City Archives. With paintings from all the major European schools - including Old Masters, French Impressionists, Glasgow Boys (and Girls) and the pre-Raphaelites - to social history images and historic photographs of shipbuilding on the Clyde, we offer opportunities to add a fresh look to your product range, publication, project or campaign. Or why not order a fine art, photographic or canvas print from our collections?
