EBB-TIDE Arthur Armstrong RHA (1924-1996)
Signature: signed lower left; inscribed on reverse Medium: oil on board Dimensions: 60.96 by 76.2cm., 24 by 30in. Exhibited: thought to have been exhibited at, 'Further Aspects of Landscape: Exhibition of Paintings by Arthur Armstrong', Gallery 22, Dublin, 6-23 May 1980, as catalogue no. 16 Throughout the late sixties and seventies Armstrong painted at least four known works titled Ebb-Tide. The present example is most likely the last in that series, exhibited in 1980 at Gallery 22 on St... t Stephen’s Green. In reviewing this show, Desmond MacAvock noted that “all the paintings are of the rocky foreshore of the sea. Sometimes the view is across a bay with a hill on the far shore, but usually the subject is the pools and seaweed-festooned rocks weaving across the sands towards the distant sea” (Irish Times, 12 May 1980). He also noted the earthy palette of the works in that show - “browns, dark blues, sands coloured by the setting sun” - all of which aptly describes the present work more
