Kirkcudbright is a historic harbor town located in Dumfries and Galloway, southwest Scotland. Known as "The Artists' Town," it has a rich artistic heritage dating back to the late 19th century when it became a haven for Scottish artists, particularly those of the Glasgow School. The town's unique quality of light and picturesque setting attracted numerous painters and craftspeople, establishing a creative legacy that continues today.

The town features characteristic Georgian and Victorian architecture, with its historic High Street leading down to the working harbor where fishing boats still dock. Kirkcudbright's cultural significance is reflected in its various galleries and studios, while MacLellan's Castle, a 16th-century fortress, stands as a reminder of the town's medieval past. The town maintains its artistic tradition through regular exhibitions, arts festivals, and cultural events throughout the year.
