Eduardo Alessandro Studios
Scotland's Contemporary Art Gallery

About Us

Our story began in the summer of 1978 when Alfred and June Paladini opened a charming and rustic cottage gallery in their hometown. They had discovered some months before two abandoned and derelict cottages ideally situated within a stones throw of the waterfront in the picturesque coastal village of Broughty Ferry, only 3 miles east of Dundee. Alf and June had a vision to create a gallery which could provide an opportunity for the wealth of local artistic talent, and after much searching had at last found the ideal location. They enthusiastically set about restoring the rustic cottages which today house our jewellery and gift collections, determined to keep the buildings true to their original character. In 1999 aided by their sons, Sandro and Leon, the family embarked upon a further major redevelopment of adjacent buildings to create the unique two-storey purpose built gallery which adjoins the original 200 year old cottages. Today, Eduardo Alessandro Studios continues to follow its founding principle to support and promote artists and craftspeople from Scotland.

Our Location

The gallery is situated in the picturesque seaside village of Broughty Ferry, just outside Dundee. The streets are filled with cafe's and shoppers and our historic castle and pristine beach are a stone's throw away. Visitors to our gallery come from around the world or around the corner and we would love to share this part of the world with you.

WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT US

Today I received the delivery of my Sue Howells original watercolour ‘Wait for Me’.

Thank you so much for the excellent packaging guaranteeing safe receipt.

With appreciation and regards.

Our order was hand delivered to the chosen address very quickly and was all in one piece. It was a gift for my dad’s retirement and he was very pleased with it. It is now proudly displayed on his office wall. Thank you so much.

Jennie

I visited your gallery on Wednesday, and to be honest was quite blown away by all the paintings. The upstairs exhibition was fantastic, and also all the paintings downstairs complimented each other, by colour and choice of positioning.

Many thanks for a truly wonderful display and exhibition.

I just received the Robert Ryan artwork I purchased and it is breathtakingly beautiful! I absolutely love it. Thank you to Robert Ryan for bringing magic to my life and sharing his artistry and vision, and thank you EA studios for the great customer service and quick delivery! My partner was so taken by the artwork that he has just ordered the Seahorse Galaxy piece! I can’t stop looking at the artwork, simply stunning!

The Robert Ryan ‘Starry Night Butterfly’ has just been delivered.  My husband is absolutely delighted with this as his birthday present! I just want to say ‘thank you’ for your prompt service and for the exceptional care in packaging! Well done!

I wanted to thank you for the assist and support in getting my parcel cleared through customs, I greatly appreciate the effort. @Katharine, your help has been incredible liaising with the carriers, thank you for following this through.

We have the beautiful Ian Johnston print to my mother in law today for her 70th birthday and it brought tears to her eyes. She has such special memories growing up there. I just wanted to write to say thank you so much for all your help in organising it and helping us.
Kindest regards,

Lorna

We are truly delighted with the print of Kate Philp’s Sandend, beautifully packed and sent with incredible promptitude – arriving safely the very next day!  Yours is a firm with whom it is a real pleasure to do business, governed as you most evidently are by both courtesy and efficiency. We look forward to visiting when next at Broughty Ferry.

Ian & Jenny

Thank you so much for the easy and  kind communication I received from you. A real breath of fresh air to deal with a company that listens and cares.

Hi,

I love your shop in Broughty Ferry – we’ve bought a few things over the years. Everything is excellent quality.

Love the hip flask I bought recently, bought as a Valentine’s gift for my husband.

Kind regards,

Fiona

Thanks for delivery of my recent order of print of Ma Broon desirous of a cup of tea when returning from shopping.
Service, as always, was excellent. Print arrived well within the required time frame.
We always visit the Studio when we visit the area and are never disappointed. The staff are lovely and always very helpful.
Many thanks again,

John

I just wanted to email to thank you so much for the fantastic service. My mum is really pleased with her gift and everyone that I have been in contact with at the gallery has been so helpful. During this difficult time, you helped make my mum’s birthday a little more special so I really thank you for that.

 

Catriona

I just wanted to let you know how impressed I am with the service I received from your gallery.  I ordered a Leon Morrocco print from you recently as a present for my daughter.  I had been a bit worried as, after ordering, I didn’t appear to receive a confirmation email.  I called the Studios and the lady who I spoke to was really helpful even once I realised the reply had gone into my Junk folder!   The framed print arrived at my daughter’s flat within a couple of days of ordering.  She is delighted with it and having visited your website we both agreed we would definitely browse there again.  From the photographs I only wish we could visit in person but Somerset is a very long way from you.

I thank you again and wish you well with your business.

Marianne

Dear EAS,

Thank you for the prompt delivery of my painting. It arrived yesterday and I am very pleased with it and its safe delivery in your excellent packaging

Thanks again

Duncan, Glasgow

Dear EAS
I am very pleased with the print I brought into be framed it has turned out fantastic and compliments the original poster.  It’s a replica of a poster of a Victorian circus event in the 1800’s which was bought by John Lennon in a junk shop. He took the words of the poster and turned it into Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite which is on Sgt Pepper album.
I did look around for a frame but I wanted it to look as much as the original as possible and delighted that you achieved that I have it hanging on the wall in the hallway it looks great.
Many thanks

I am emailing to thank you for the framing service you provided for my Hermes scarf.  To say I am delighted would be an understatement. The care taken and service provided has been second to none and the framing is first class. Please can you thank the framing team.

Lesley, Dundee

Just like to say thank you for the great framing job on the stain glass embroidery that my partner had done.

The framing is first class and looks fantastic hanging on the wall.

Philip, Dundee

I am writing to acknowledge safe receipt of the painting by Nael Hanna – Walking on Monifieth Beach.

 It is as good as I hoped it would be, and a lovely reminder of the many times I walked on that same beach when I lived in Monifieth.  I have long admired Nael’s work, and seen some of his lovely paintings of the Angus coastline, but haven’t seen any others that were definitely of Monifieth. It was a particularly lucky find when I saw one on your website and it is now gracing the wall of my study.

Thank you for the efficient way the order was handled and securely and promptly despatched. Thanks to Nael too for such a wonderful scene.

Dorothy

I absolutely love my painting by Kate Philip. I was worried I was being extravagant at a time of such uncertainty but it has brought me such cheer and joy and calm. My differing moods are reflected in the stunning colours and the sky and landscape.

I’m so glad I bought it and it was beautifully and carefully wrapped for delivery.

Thank you!

Lorna

I ordered 2 Broughty Ferry framed prints (online) which I have just received, and just to say I am delighted with them- so well packed and great service thank you so much

Lorraine D

We so enjoyed visiting EA Studios, and are delighted with our John Bell print.  The packaging was amazing! and we are looking forward to our next visit, and hopefully, buying another print!

Sue, The Borders

I picked up my husbands’ Grandmother’s tapestry yesterday which I had taken in to be reframed – it had fallen off the wall and the frame it was in had been damaged.  What a difference a frame makes! The new frame compliments the picture beautifully and has been much admired by Elizabeth’s great grandchildren today!  Please thank the young lady who helped pick out the frame and bead for her help.

Yours faithfully

Debbie Porter

Debbie, East Seaton

I would like to thank the member of staff who helped me by carrying a heavy parcel up to the Post Office. That was a great example of excellent after-sales service! Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and New Year.

Jean, Broughty Ferry

You surpassed my expectations in your efforts – a fantastic level of service. Very much appreciated.

Stuart, Dundee

A big thank you to those concerned for adjusting the strap of my Storm watch and posting it to me. The catch is now secure and in no danger of opening easily while being worn. I am delighted with my watch.
