William John Leech, RHA (1881 – 1968)
Portrait Bust of May Botterell"
Bronze, Edition 1/12
12½” x 11” x 19”
Portrait Bust of May Botterell"
Bronze, Edition 1/12
12½” x 11” x 19”
This extremely rare bronze portrait sculpture by William John Leech of his wife, May Botterell, is the artist's only piece of sculpture, and was cast from his original plaster model. Although dating from circa 1920/25, this sculpture remained in the artist's own private collection in Surrey, until it was bequeathed to his friend and biographer, the poet and art historian, Alan Denson, and was only exhibited publicly for the first time by the Gorry Gallery, Dublin in 1988. Denson published a biography of Leech in 1968, entitled “An Irish Artist, W.J. Leech R.H.A. 1881 – 1968”, and this bronze is illustrated in his biography. This bronze is the first from an edition of twelve, cast by the Dublin Art Foundry, and the original plaster model from which the bronze was cast is now housed in the National Gallery of Ireland, thus ensuring that this limited edition could never be repeated.

Evie Hone was at the forefront of the modern art movement in Ireland at the turn of the twentieth century. Along with her friend and fellow artist, Mainie Jellett, she was responsible for introducing elements of cubist painting to an Irish audience for the first time. Her importance in the history of Irish art is underlined by the fact that paintings and stained glass pieces by Evie Hone are included in all of the major public art collections in Ireland.

Vibrant colour is a major feature of Arthur Maderson’s shimmering impressionistic landscape painting “River Dordogne, towards Sunset”, which displays his fluency with colour harmonies and his ability to capture the shimmering interplay of light and shade in the landscape.

Rose Brigid Ganly
(1909 - 2002)
(1909 - 2002)
Rose Brigid Ganly's painting "Female Nude" dates from 1951, the year that she travelled to Paris to study with renowned French Cubist artist, André Lhote. The influence of Lhote is apparent in this painting with its shallow perspective, and three dimensional forms broken down into flattened planes of complimentary colours, in order to create a harmonious composition.
