Born in New York, William Gallacher attended the Glasgow School of Art (GSA) from 1937, gaining his diploma in 1947. He joined the teaching staff of the GSA in 1968 and worked mainly in the School of Architecture until 1978. The sitter in this painting had also been a student of the GSA and like Gallacher, returned to teach at the School in the department of architecture.

This painting was lost in the fire in The Mackintosh Building at The Glasgow School of Art on 23rd May 2014.
