'Irish Battle Scene' ~ Countess Constance Markievicz.

A scene showing a group of seven Irish warriors on horseback carrying spears. The warriors are dressed in toga-like garments and have strapped sandals, the straps reaching to the knees.

'Meadow' ~ Mainie Jellett.

Jellett worked tirelessly for the promotion of Modernism in Ireland, and in 1943 was elected the first president of the Irish Exhibition of Living Art, an exhibition forum which offered an alternative to the academy.

'Shy Sweetheart' ~ Gerard Dillon.

Dillon chiefly exhibited in Ireland, holding numerous solo exhibitions both in Dublin and his native Belfast. Being a self-taught artist, he was perhaps naturally drawn to a free-form expressive style in painting.

'Don Quixote and Sancho Panza' ~ Honoré Daumier.

This luminous painting is one of Daumier’s most highly regarded works. The composition here is very simple and effective and the mountainous landscape is suggested by two sloping diagonals of differing colours.

'Birds in Autumn' ~ Anne Yeats.

This is a two colour planogaphic print (lithograph) on paper, depicting three white birds in flight. Born in Dublin, Yeats trained in the Royal Hibernian Academy school and had a touching naive expressionist style.

Belfast-born Henry studied at the Belfast School of Art. Enthralled by the rugged scenery he moved to Achill in 1912, remaining there until 1919 when they relocated to Dublin.

These are some of his landscapes from his time on the island 😍

'Miss Anstruther Thomson' ~ John Singer Sargent.

A mark of Sargent's exceptional talent was his ability to reveal his subject's character. Thomson, engrossed in sketching and set against an architectural background, almost projects towards the viewer with a determined intensity.

John Singer Sargent was in Florence, Italy #OnThisDay in 1856. Over the course of the day, we will be sharing some of his works from the Hugh Lane Collection, including 'Portrait of Lady Charles Beresford', 'Statue at Vertumnus at Frascati' and 'Miss Anstruther Thomson'.

#OTD in 1941, Sir John Lavery passed away. Lavery always wanted to be a portrait painter although his earliest successes were with landscapes, picking up prizes at the Paris Salon. When Queen Victoria sat for him, however, his success as a fashionable portraitist was assured.

'The Refugees' ~ William Conn.

This picture depicts a man seated on rocks to the right holding a weeping child on his lap. Behind a row of figures (men, women and children) move to the left.
