}}Walter Balmer Hislop (26 November 1886-28 April 1915) was a portrait painter and landscape artist.[1]

Hislop trained at the Edinburgh College of Art. His parents were Margaret Robertson Hislop and John Hislop (ex-bailie of Leith)[2], and they lived in a house named 'Summerside' on Pentland Avenue in Colinton, Edinburgh. He attended Leith Academy and in 1901 was awarded a Dux medal.[3] He graduated with a Diploma in Drawing and Painting in 1909 and served on the staff from 1911-12.

During World War I Hislop served with ‘D’ Company, 1/5th (Queen's Edinburgh Rifles) Battalion, Royal Scots, having been commissioned into the regiment as a Second lieutenant in March 1914.[4] He was involved in the Gallipoli Campaign but died on the 28th April 1915 (aged 29)[5] and is buried in Redoubt Cemetery Helles, Gallipoli, Turkey.[6] His name appears on the War Memorial in the grounds of Colinton Parish Church.[7] His sister was Jessie Hislop who married the Edinburgh artist Adam Bruce Thomson in 1918.

Hislop mainly painted portraits[8] and landscapes particularly around Edinburgh and East Lothian.[9] His work rarely appears on display although two oil works on canvas were sold recently.[10]
