Memorial to James Whitelaw Hamilton
"In memory of James Whitelaw Hamilton R.S.A., Helensburgh, born at Glasgow 26 Nov 1860, died 17 Sept 1932" (some sources give the 16th as his date of death).
The artist James Whitelaw Hamilton was an associate of the Glasgow Boys, but he himself is not generally seen as being fully a part of that movement. See http://artuk.org/discover/artists/hamilton-james-whitelaw-18601932 (at ArtUK) for a selection of his works.
His younger sister Margaret (Maggie) Hamilton was married to the architect Alexander Nisbet Paterson, who was responsible for Helensburgh's Image, and also, in part, for the Image, which is located nearby. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/tagged/architect:Alexander+Nisbet+Paterson for other works. It is worth noting that the couple's daughter Mary Viola Paterson was also an artist.
The small bronze detail on the lower part of the memorial represents the badge of the Highland Light Infantry; the accompanying inscription commemorates James' son Arthur Leslie Hamilton, who was killed in action in Mesopotamia in 1918.
