Pastures at Malahide 1894-1896 by Nathaniel Hone




Wiki

Hone's paintings which were completed in France have many similarities to those that he worked on to his country farm in Co. Dublin, but the finish is perhaps more polished off and professional in these later Irish works. One of his finest pieces is Pastures at Malahide. Cows in the foreground of the painting rest quietly grazing against the low horizon. This allows for a large amount of space to be given to the rich and dominating sky full of white cumulus clouds. The atmosphere is one of peace and tranquility, while being typically Irish with the feeling of impending rain.

Patrick Leonard was born in 1918 in Rush, Co. Dublin. From 1936 to 1941 he studied intermittently at the Metropolitan School of Art, Dublin, under Sean Keating P.R.H.A., and Maurice MacGonigal P.R.H.A.

Patrick Leonard first exhibited at the RHA in 1941; he was elected associate member in 1942 and an honorary member in 1983. Bouts of illness plagued the artist throughout his life and often interrupted his work as an artist and art teacher.

In the earlier part of his career, Patrick Leonard exhibited regularly at the Victor Waddington Galleries, Dublin. In 1979 he held a solo show at the Oriel Gallery, Dublin and in 1990 the Gorry Gallery, Dublin held a large retrospective of his works. The artist died in 2005.

Great idea for thread Corsendonk. Not a topic I would be well up on at all, am I well up on any I here you ask;) I am sure there are plenty of local prints by Ciaran "Chic" Clear, Joe Corr, Irene Delaney, Jim Kilgarriff and more by Paul Kelly who had quite a succesful ehibition in the R.H.A Or was it the Hyde Gallery(?) about 4 or 5 years ago which featured his work on Lambay Island. I think Chic Clear might have been more into West of Ireland scenes with his beautiful moonscapes

Now if you drop me down a few €uro I will go off tomorrow and get a few and post them here.:)

Alexander Williams 1846-1930

Following his election to the RHA as an associate member in 1884, he held his first solo exhibition at the Leinster Hall, Molesworth Street. What began as a two-day private affair with entry by invitation only, evolved into solo public exhibitions (preceded by private viewings) that ran for several weeks. These were prodigious affairs in which he thought nothing of showing a hundred pictures, sometimes more. He was adept at raising publicity for exhibitions, obtaining enduring patronage from successive Lord Lieutenants and their wives, and what were known as ‘the castle set.’ This worked well as nobody more than the titled set trends, where they went and what they bought were of keen interest to the press and the public at large. These solo exhibitions of Alexander Williams became eagerly awaited events in the social calendar of Dublin, drawing, at the height of his popularity crowds of a thousand and more. He maintained his solo exhibitions in Dublin, missing few years, until 1926. Outside Ireland, Williams made a number of forays into a number of English provincial towns, including Manchester and Birmingham and he exhibited for a number of years in Bond Street, London. Further afield, although he never himself travelled beyond the British Isles, his work was shown in Switzerland and Canada; and in America, at the World Fair in Chicago in 1893 he was represented by ‘Sweet Dublin Bay’, while at the St Louis World Fair of 1904, in association with the Congested District Board, he showed an extensive collection. (His two brothers Edward and William also exhibited at the St Louis World Fair, contributing a taxidermy collection of marine birds).

I was speaking to a relative of his the other morning about photography and showed him this thread. He was amazed at how this site operates. The relative who grandfather was a brother of the artist, I am sure some of the older Rush boards people will remember "Ba" Leonard from Channel Rd who I think was his daughter. I will ask over next day or two.

Great thread

HARRY EPWORTH ALLEN

Walter Osborne was born in Rathmines, Dublin, the second of three sons of William Osborne, a successful animal painter. He was educated at Rathmines School and at the Royal Hibernian Academy school.[1]
He won the Taylor Prize in 1881 and 1882, the highest student honour in Ireland of the time, while studying at the Koninklijke Academie voor Schone Kunsten in Antwerp. He was influenced by the Flemish painter, Rubens, and the French realist, plain-air painter, Jules Bastien-Lepage. In 1883, Osborne moved from Antwerp to Brittany where he painted his famous Apple Gathering, Quimperlé, now in the National Gallery of Ireland. Soon after, he moved to England where he worked alongside Nathaniel Hill and Augustus Burke at Walberswick.
In 1886 he was elected to the Royal Hibernian Academy and received many commissions for portraits.[1] This was an important source of income, as he had no private means of his own. After his sister died he was involved in looking after her daughter, and his own parents became increasingly financially dependent on him.
In 1892 he returned to Ireland to live in the family residence, and he also had a studio at No. 7 St. Stephen's Green. He spent a considerable amount of time painting outdoors, in Dublin around St. Patrick's Cathedral or in the country. He was well liked in social circles and counted the surgeon Sir Thornely Stoker, brother of Bram Stoker, among his best friends.
He died prematurely at the age of 44 from pneumonia and was buried in Mount Jerome Cemetery.[1]
Some critics suggest that at the time of his death he was on the brink of his artistic maturity. His final work Tea in the Garden, a dazzling fusion of naturalism and impressionism, remained unfinished at his death and is now in the collection of the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery in Dublin.
In recent years his work has become highly sought after by collectors.[

During these later years, Osborne used to take a summer cottage for six weeks every year in Malahide or Portmarnock, where he stayed with the Reilly family in their thatched cottage on Strand Road, just at the entrance to the golf links. Here, in 1902, he painted The House Builders ; the Reilly twins at a young age, playing with cards at their table. Here he was close to Hone and his friends, the Jamesons.

JosephM Kavanagh was a student at the Metroplitan School of Art from 1887 to 1888. His career is closely associated with the more well known Walter Osborne. Both travelled to Antwerp in 1881 to take the "Nature" class under Verlat and shared lodgings. A third artist, Nathaniel Hill, accompanied them. They returned for the winter of 1882-83 to take the Life class.

Joseph painted numerous studies of local views of Antwerp and the surrounding countryside as well as studies of Brittany in France. Among the Irish studying in Antwerp Jospeh seems to have been the one most interested in etching. He produced numerous etchings and exhibited them over the course of the next four years. On his return to Ireland Joseph settled down in Clontarf and focused his attentions on capturing the local views of Dublin and it's outlying areas. He produced studies of Dublin Bay, Sutton, Portmarnock and North Bull

Although he was a prolific painter Joseph's work is relatively rare. As Keeper of the RHA, he was a resident in their premises on Abbey Street when the buildings, including his studio and paintings, were destroyed by fire. The only surviving works are being those which had left his possession before the fire. Kavanagh was lucky to escape with his life from the burning building but he never fully recovered from the tragedy

Harry Aaron Kernoff (January 10, 1900 – December 25, 1974) was an Irishpainter. The Irish artist of London/Russian extraction, is primarily remembered for his sympathetic interest in Dublin and its people. He depicted street and pub scenes, as well as Dublin landmarks with sympathy and understanding. This is particularly evident in his woodcuts. While living in his adopted Dublin jewish community he produced picture illustrations of his local scenes for a neighbourhood writer and friend, Nick Harris for his book called "Dublin's Little Jerusalem".
Born in London, Kernoff moved to Dublin and became a leading figure in Irish modernism. Influenced by Seán Keating, Kernoff painted the Irish landscape, genre scenes, and portraits. In 1930, Kernoff visited the Soviet Union as part of an Irish delegation from the friends of Soviet Russia led by Hanna Sheehy-Skeffington. While visiting, he was influenced by the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia. Kernoff is famously associated with Davy Byrne’s pub. His paintings and woodcuts of Davy Byrne’s pub are documents of his friendship with the original owner.

Maurice MacGonigal PRHA (1900-79)

The landscape and portrait artist Maurice MacGonigal was born in Dublin, becoming a design apprentice in his Uncle's firm which designed and produced stained glass. MacGonigal's cousin, the artist Harry Clarke (who married the painter Margaret Crilley) gave him much encouragement.
MacGonigal mixed politics with art studies, managing within a few years to be interned at Ballykinlar Camp, take drawing and figure drawing classes at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art (now the National College of Art and Design) and win the Taylor Scholarship in painting. He also won the Tailteann silver medal for landscape.

He would alternate between renting a house each summer in Loughshinny and the West of Ireland.
