Paul Henry RHA (1877-1958) Connemara Landscape Oil on canvas board, 25 x 30cm (10 x 14'') Signed Provenance: A Private Dublin Collection Dated to the early to mid-1930s on stylistic grounds, this quintessential work by Henry displays all the classic characteristics he is known and loved for. The visual emphasis is placed on the two thatched cottages in the foreground, caught in light and delineated with the warm greens that line the lake shore. To the left are several layers of undulating bog-land rendered in browns, ochres and blues as they recede into the distance. The turf mounds punctuate the composition and along with the homesteads provide a sense of human presence. Henry has applied the paint with his usual great care and the sense of freshness and clear air, which pervades the whole composition, also typifies much of the artists work of this period. We are indebted to Dr. S.B.Kennedy whose writings have formed the basis of this note.
