Borders Bothy
Borders Bothy is a beautiful and evocative artwork by much-loved Scottish artist Esther Cohen, whose distinctive style blends gentle movement, soft atmospheric skies and expressive brushwork inspired by the landscapes and heritage of Scotland. This piece forms part of Esther’s highly popular collection of Tartan Bothy artworks, each celebrating the quiet magic found in rural Scottish hideaways.
In Borders Bothy, Esther captures the calm charm of a traditional bothy nestled within the scenic Scottish Borders. The artwork features a warm, characterful stone bothy surrounded by woodland, sweeping skies and soft natural textures that create a peaceful, inviting feel. The gentle curves of the landscape, paired with the artist’s airy, flowing sky, give the artwork a sense of motion and storytelling. Two spirited hares leap in the foreground, bringing energy and life to the composition while reminding viewers of the wildlife that thrives throughout the Borders region. Through colour, texture and subtle detail, Borders Bothy creates a sense of calm nostalgia, making it a comforting and meaningful centrepiece for any room.
