"The Preaching of St Columba" is a notable painting by the Scottish artist William McTaggart, renowned for his contributions to the Scottish art scene in the 19th century. McTaggart, often referred to as the "Scottish Impressionist," is celebrated for his vibrant use of color and dynamic brushwork, which are evident in this particular work. Painted in 1895, "The Preaching of St Columba" captures a significant moment in Scottish history, depicting St Columba, the Irish missionary monk who played a crucial role in the spread of Christianity in Scotland during the 6th century.

The painting is set against the dramatic and rugged landscape of the Scottish Highlands, a characteristic feature of McTaggart's work, which often reflects his deep appreciation for the natural beauty of Scotland. In this piece, St Columba is portrayed with a sense of spiritual fervor, addressing a group of attentive listeners. The composition is marked by McTaggart's skillful use of light and shadow, which enhances the sense of divine presence and the solemnity of the scene.

McTaggart's approach to this historical and religious subject is both reverent and innovative. He combines a realistic portrayal of the figures with an impressionistic treatment of the landscape, creating a harmonious blend that draws the viewer into the narrative. The painting not only reflects McTaggart's technical prowess but also his ability to convey profound emotional and spiritual themes.

"The Preaching of St Columba" is housed in the National Gallery of Scotland, where it continues to be admired for its artistic merit and historical significance. It stands as a testament to McTaggart's legacy as one of Scotland's foremost painters and his enduring influence on the depiction of Scottish history and landscape in art.
