Unveiling of the Tom Vallance Portrait Ibrox Stadium Saturday 26th May.


Recommended Posts

Last year we posted the incredible tale behind this wonderful painting by our own Tom Vallance from 1891 and how it had been found in a cupboard at Ibrox.

We met with the Club to discuss restoring the painting which would be funded by the Restoration of Rangers Graves Project and Club 1872.

 

The Club agreed to let artist Helen Runciman, who has painted among many others our Founders and Tom Vallance portraits, carry out the restoration work.

 

The work is now complete and this priceless gem will be unveiled at the top of the Marble Staircase at Ibrox Stadium this Saturday evening at 7.15pm. This will be before  Champions League Final event which is sold out.

Yes, that's him.

I thought it was. You can still see the resemblance to the young Davy Wilson. Some people you would never know when they are old but you see it with him.
