COOMASAHARN, COUNTY KERRY, 1930-1935 Paul Henry RHA (1876-1958)
Signature: signed lower left; titled on reverse; also with Jorgensen Fine Art label on reverse Medium: oil on board Dimensions: 12 x 14in. (30.48 x 35.56cm) Provenance: Private collection, USA; Collection of Paul Harris Glasgow; Adams, 14 December 1994, lot 24; Jorgensen Fine Art, Dublin; Private collection Exhibited: Literature: Kennedy, S. B., Paul Henry with a Catalogue of the Paintings, Drawings, Illustrations, New Haven and London, Yale University Press, 2007, catalogue no. 867, p.272 (illustrated) This work was probably painted during or shortly after Henry's visit to County Kerry in 1934 and is dated 1930-1935 on stylistic grounds. The real subject matter of the scene is the weather, which fal... lls over the hills in the background. Otherwise it is a typical Paul Henry landscape, but a very fine one. The mountain, which halts the eye's recession, also provides for the clouds which tumble and fall on the scene. The cottages are grouped together and, apart from their connection, there is no human habitation to be seen. The cottages look out on the expected warmth of the turf stacks in typical Henry fashion. This picture is numbered 867 in the catalogue raisonné of Henry's oeuvre. Dr SB Kennedy HRHA October 2017 more
