About MeLoch Duich and the Five Sisters of Kintail are located in the northwest highlands of Scotland. During his lifetime, Farquharson’s wintry scenes in the highlands became widely popular with tourists as well as collectors in the south. He lived in the small Aberdeenshire village of Finzean for the rest of his life.Adopted by Doreen Lawrie
