Literature: ‘Jack B Yeats, His Watercolours, Drawings and Pastels’ by Hilary Pyle, Cat. No. 31 (p.62, illus).

In his work as a watercolourist Yeats valued the power of style and he imitated and experimented with various manners, suitable to the occasion for which he fashioned them. His watercolours are interesting in themselves for their variety, the breadth of the subject matter and for their inventiveness.

I n watercolour, unlike illustration, he was seeking for self-expression. The experimenting in watercolour laid the ground for his painting in oil. Yeats continued to look back to the themes of his watercolours when painting his later oils, where memory played a major part in his conceptions. Simple images are repeated after an interval of forty years. Tinkers, tramps and pirates, the rather sinister personnel of the Life in the West of Ireland days, seem to have been an emotional outlet for the darker side of the artists personality as well as a vehicle for fantasy.

‘ Hold Me Hat till I Tear Un!’ not only show the artists continual enjoyment of words, but indicate how he brought a human warmth to the rather spare imagery.

14 Sir John Lavery RA RSA RHA 1856-1941 STEAMERS IN THE HARBOUR, ST JEAN DE LUZ Oil on canvas, 24" x 29½" (61 x 75cm), signed lower left, J LAVERY. Provenance: Dublin, James Adam, 1 June 1989; London, Sotheby’s, 16 May 2003; Whyte’s Dublin, 14 March 2011.

Exhibited: Edinburgh, Royal Scottish Academy, 1920, No. 187

In April 1917 John and Hazel Lavery embarked on a spring holiday – their first since the outbreak of war. Fear of U-boat attack on passenger vessels following the sinking of the Lusitania two years earlier, was intense and the painter’s studio at Tangier was permanently out of bounds. Although the German Navy remained active, by this time supply routes across the English Channel were less risky and with Lavery’s commission as an Official War Artist looming in a few weeks, the couple set off. Travelling first to Paris, they visited the painter’s old friend Jacques-Emile Blanche, and then journeyed south to the Duke of Westminster’s shooting lodge at Mimizan on the Atlantic coast, before finally repairing to the Grand Hotel de l’Angleterre at St Jean de Luz1. The town that, along with neighbouring Biarritz, had been a fashionable watering hole for King Edward VII, was now merely a safe haven for ships sailing north and south through the hostile seas of the Bay of Biscay. During their stay, the spacious natural harbour was filled with Norwegian cargo vessels, their bows painted with the bold flags of neutrality.

As always, Lavery travelled with an ample supply of canvases, and at the southern resort he painted the famous Maison Louis XIV in the central square. Being close to the Spanish border, he also made a brief foray to Fuenterrabia to paint the Good Friday celebrations2. However, his main task during the holiday was a suite of six pictures, all painted from the same location looking south over the harbour at St Jean de Luz. Each contains the strip of distant headland with its ancient tower. Throughout the series, the boats change position and the artist, echoing Cezanne on the motif at Mont St Victoire, only needed to move his line of sight to create a new composition. The Harbour, St Jean de Luz, Early Morning, (Sheffield City Art Galleries), and A Still Morning, (Ferens Art Gallery, Kingston-upon-Hull), indicate the painter’s fascination with changing light effects. Working throughout the day, Lavery was obliged to change his palette for the sharper ceruleans of the Côté de l’Atlantique at midday in The Sands (Private Collection), and in the present example, while in Twilight, St Jean de Luz, (Private Collection), he returns to the more muted mauves and pinks of evening3. One further picture, Norwegian Cargo Boats, (Private Collection), excludes the foreground beach and concentrates upon ships pulling out into the deep channel and setting off along the coast. It could almost act as a prelude to the present work in which the lead vessel approaches the harbour entrance with its breaking waves.

S urveying this important interlude, it is impossible not to appreciate the artist’s sense of liberation. Having been confined in London since his last visit to Morocco at the beginning of 1914, opportunities to ‘wash the studio light from his eyes’ were few. Gazing on the majestic sweep of the bay at St Jean de Luz, he clearly recalled the early work of Whistler who, in his youth, had painted on the shore at Biarritz. But it was the magical softness and fluidity of Whistler’s Valparaiso seascapes and nocturnes that haunted him here, as the still morning turned to a bright, blustery midday and the coasters steamed off into hostile waters.

15 Micheal Farrell 1940-2000 A SHORTER HISTORY OF IRELAND Oil on canvas, 57½" x 76" (146 x 193cm), signed, inscribed & dated 1980 verso.

orn in Kells, Co. Meath, Farrell studied at the St Martin’s and Colchester Colleges of Art . His work B has been exhibited all over the world. A retrospective of his work was held in the Douglas Hyde Gallery in 1979 and was accompanied by a monograph by Cyril Barrett. His work can be found in the Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery, IMMA, the Ulster Museum, the Georges Pompidou and The Museé d’Art, Moderne de Paris.

F arrell was Ireland’s foremost political painter. These works come from a series produced in 1981/82.

When exhibited in 1982 Cyril Barrett commented on A Shorter History of Ireland; “Michael Farrell returns, twelve years later, to a much more mellow view of the Irish situation than the Pressé Poitique series, and even the Miss O’Murphy series. One could describe it as cynical, but it might be better described as mature. In fact, it is a depiction of a view of Ireland of that mature, humane, slightly cynical, troubled observer of the Irish Situation and eminent writer Jonathan Swift. The situation has not changed much since Swift wrote in the 1720s. His satire was lost on the British government, as, no doubt, Micheal Farrell’s will be now- even if it ever comes to their attention.

But, while governments come and go, art has a way of persisting”.

Exhibited: 1974, Neptune Gallery, No.30 (illustrated)

Literature: Mainie Jellett, Irish Museum of Modern Art Dublin 1991, page 70, No. 78

F rom 1921-1924 Mainie Jellett continued her studies of abstract art with Evie Hone under the tutelage of Albert Gleizes. Together they developed his new art which was based on a method he called translation and rotation, a technique which involves taking the shape of the canvas and moving it up and down or sideways (translation), and pivoting it (rotation), the overlapping of these forms creating a varied composition. During this period the works were characterised by simple forms and strong colour. In 1924 Jellett exhibited at the Dublin Painter’s Gallery. The works were multiple element works and not always successful.

By 1925 Jellett’s compositions were much more successful. The artist began using a more limited colour range, frequently dark greens, blues, greys and earth tones which gives a sense of unity to the paintings. Surface patterning is increasingly important, becoming more geometric and the paintings are sharply delineated into two or three elements.

Provenance: Gimple & Hanover Galerie, Zurich; ex collection of Garech Brown, Luggala, Co Wicklow; Private Collection.

le Brocquy painted over 100 studies of Joyce, in oil, watercolour and charcoal. Discussing his series of studies of James Joyce, le Brocquy explained: “ I have never known Joyce, but am bound to him as a Dubliner. For it is said that no-one from that city can quite escape its microcosmic world, and I am no exception. Joyce is the apotheosis, the archetype of our kind and it seems to me that in him – behind the volatile arrangement of his features – lies his unique evocation of that small city, large as life and therefore poignant everywhere” (quoted in Louis le Brocquy, Portrait Heads, exh cat., National Gallery of Ireland, 2006, p.62).

20 Louis Le Brocquy HRHA 1916-2012 TORSO F.39 Oil on canvas, 12" x 10" (30.5 x 25.5), signed.

Provenance: Gimple Fils, London, where purchased by a private collector, November 1959; Sotheby’s 11 May 2006, lot 111; Private Collection.

Executed in 1959, the present work was made the year after le Brocquy married the artist Anne Madden at Chartres Cathedral. During this she was undergoing dramatic surgery on her spine and her fragile state both raised le Brocquy’s awareness of the human condition and prompted him to explore ideas concerning the fundamental nature of human existence and the dichotomies of life and death, being and nonbeing. Torso F.39 strongly relates to one of his first explorations of this theme, Young Woman (Anne) (1957, private collection), where the female form has been reduced to a shadowy presence whose only tangible reference is her spine running along the central vertical axis of the composition.

Provenance: Hôtel Drouot, Paris, Vente O’Conor, 7 February 1956; with Roland, Browse & Delbanco, London; with Schoneman Galleries, New York, as ‘Flowers on Table�, where purchased by the previous owner.

Exhibited: Paris, Salon d�Automne, 1910, no. 895, as ‘Nature morte�.

Literature: J. Benington, Roderic O�Conor: A Biography with a catalogue of his work, Dublin, 1992, pp. 113, 120, 210, no. 165, pl. 45.

T his radiant floral still-life depicts a group of everyday domestic items laid out as if for a light meal on a table positioned directly below one of O�Conor�s large studio windows at 102 rue du Cherche-midi.

A shaft of brilliant sunlight enters from the right and renders the objects pale and ethereal, whilst behind them the darkly shaded studio wall creates contrast and depth. A few accents of brighter colour – vermilion and dark green – draw the eye towards the central bowl of flowers. To capture the mid-tones, O�Conor uses feathered or scumbled brushstrokes, whereas the heavier build-up of paint applied for the darks and lights ensures a lively picture surface.

faint inscription on the back confirms that it was exhibited shortly after it was painted, besides A indicating the title the artist gave it on that occasion. It was one of two ‘Nature Mortes’ (still-life’s) that comprised O�Conor�s submission to the 1910 Salon d�Automne.

the time this study was painted, about six years after his arrival in Paris, O’Conor was By well established in a fine studio on rue du Cherche-Midi. O’Conor painted this model several times.

Although O’Conors sumptuous reds, crimsons and violets are very much in evidence in this work, the lighter colours of the girls costume subdue them. The model wears a delicate posy of violets pinned to her blouse (a nosegay). The facial features are built up with a minimum of brush strokes.

45 William John Leech RHA ROI 1881-1968 THE HOUSEKEEPER Oil on canvas, 32" x 24" (81 x 61cm), signed.

Provenance: Private Collection, Dublin.

E xhibited: National Gallery of Ireland ‘William John Leech: An Irish Painter Abroad,’ 23rd Oct – 15th Dec 1996, no. 114

Literature: Denise Ferran, Leech, NGI & Merrell Holberton, London, 1996, Illus.in colour, p. 293.

I n 1958, May Botterell’s niece Margaret Wallace, encouraged May and William John Leech to move out of London, from May’s home at 20, Abbey Road and from Leech’s Steele’s Studio, which had been damaged in the 1943 blitz. Over thirty years after their first meeting, May Botterell, had become Leech’s second wife in April 1953. Her first husband, Percy Botterell, had died in 1952 and Leech’s first wife, Elizabeth, who was the subject of ‘Convent Garden, Brittany’ and ‘The Sunshade’, both in the collection of the NGI, had previously died in Quincy, Mass, USA, in 1951.

ay and Bill Leech bought Candy Cottage, a detached mock Tudor house in West Clandon, Surrey, close M to where Margaret Wallace lived. Although, the couple were then in their late 70’s, Leech entered the last decade of his life with a new happiness and optimism. He built a studio in the garden and began a series of paintings, of self-portraits, of scenes in his garden, of his house and the house opposite, of boats moored along the Wey in the Surrey countryside, a commissioned portrait of his neighbour Chloe Abbott and portraits of the Wallace children, all with a renewed fervour, seeking the sunlight and shadow he first began capturing in 1906. One of these works was ‘The Housekeeper’.

T he pine table and pine chair, which were objects in his Steele’s Studio, and the potted plants on the table, suggest that this work was painted in Leech’s new studio. From information gathered from some of Leech’s other sitters, in particular Chloe Abbott, he worked slowly from life, only using photographs as additional or introductory information. He only painted when the light was right and when he was in the right mood which explains his small output of finished works. One can only surmise that little housework was completed during these painting sessions as Leech spent months on a painting, particularly one of the scale and skill of The Housekeeper.

In 1996, I wrote in “William John Leech: An Irish Painter Abroad” that: “Seen from a high vantage point, she poses sitting in a floral overall, shining a copper kettle, a harmony of creams and turquoises. She is highlighted by the sunlight coming in through the window, and the pattern of her overall, in blues and pinks… has more than a passing reference to Bonnard, who Leech professed to admire. The table top, bathed in light, diverges diagonally to the background, in a customary Leech composition, adhering to his appreciation of Degas’s composition.”

As May’s health was failing, the housekeeper came daily, except on a Sunday from 1958 until May’s death in July 1963, just five years after their arrival in West Clandon. Leech tragically died, as a result of a fall onto the railway track at West Clandon, in July 1968, three years almost to the day after May’s death.

Paul Henry rarely painted trees, but when he did it was winter trees that attracted him, trees without foliage so that one can see their architecture (see S.B. Kennedy, Paul Henry: with a catalogue of the Drawings, Paintings, Illustrations, Yale University Press, New Haven & London, 2007, Wind-blown Trees, 1918-19 (number 507), The West Wind, 1920-1 (558), Trees, County Wicklow, 1930-1 (747), Winter Trees, 1930-1 (748), Windswept Trees, c. 1930-1 (751)).

T he setting is almost certainly County Wicklow, probably near to Kilmacanogue where Henry settled after he moved from Dublin. The range of colours, with an emphasis on olive greens and umbers, and the fluid handling of the paint are characteristic of his work at the time, while the lattice-like tracery, especially in the upper reaches of the branches of the trees, harks back to a number of compositions, all of which are listed above. Reviewing Henry’s 1931 exhibition at Combridge’s Gallery in Dublin – Exhibition of Irish Landscapes & Scenes in Co. Wicklow – where this work may have been exhibited, the Irish Times (10 October 1931) noted that in painting County Wicklow the artist had ‘invaded a ground of literature’, a place that was formerly the ‘preserve of the poets’; and what a ‘gladdened eye’, it said, he had cast on it. The richer landscape of County Wicklow also contrasts with that of the rugged west of Ireland. Winter Trees represents not only a change of emphasis in Henry’s subject matter but also a lightening of his mood which remained for the rest of his career.

inter Trees is dated c. 1930-1 on stylistic grounds and is numbered 1302 in S. B. W Kennedy’s ongoing cataloguing of Paul Henry’s oeuvre.

68 Walter Frederick Osborne RHA 1859-1903 FEEDING TIME (1877) Oil on canvas, 13¼" x 11¼" (34 x 29cm), signed with initials.

Provenance: With a Mrs Parker, Winter 1903-04 (a relation of the artist�s father); Sold at auction (unknown), Dublin, 1971; Sotheby�s, 19th century European Paintings, Olympia, 13 July 2006, lot 89; Private collection; Whytes, 10 october 2011 (lot 81), catalogue entry below; Private Collection, London.

E xhibited: ‘Memorial Exhibition of the works of Walter Osborne�, Royal Hibernian Academy, Winter 1903-04, catalogue no. 71 (Lent by Mrs. Parker).

Literature: Sheehy, Jeanne, Walter Osborne, Gifford & Craven, Ballycotton, Co. Cork, 1974, p.110, catalogue no. 1 (listed).

ontained in original gilt frame with exhibition plaque dating to the artist�s Memorial Exhibition at the RHA, Dublin C 1903-1904.

Sheehy’s text on Osborne was the first book about the artist, and the only one to contain a full catalogue raisonné.

The catalogue lists his works in chronological order with ‘Feeding Time’, 1877 as his first recorded work. The painting is not illustrated and Sheehy’s information is sourced from the exhibition catalogue for Osborne’s Memorial Exhibition, 1903-04.

The author notes the work was lent to the exhibition by a Mrs Parker as per a label verso (since disappeared). Additionally, Sheehy notes: “This picture seems to be related to ‘A Bit in Co. Wicklow’ (Memorial Exhibition, no. 105) which The Freeman’s Journal (7 December, 1903) said was the first specimen of his work. The Parkers were related to Walter Osborne’s father.”

t the age of 17 years Osborne entered the schools of the RHA and exhibited for the first time with the Academy A [Nora, catalogue no. 312, price £5-0-0] the following year. Osborne exhibited annually with the RHA until his death and the testaments to this lifelong relationship serve to trace his maturing ability from his formative years, when ‘Feeding Time’ was executed, through to his last work ‘Milking Time’ shown in 1903.

(b) Any claim under any Statute must be received in writing by the Auctioneers within three months of the sale. (c) The Auctioneers shall not be liable for consequential or resultant loss or damage whether sustained by a Vendor or a Purchaser or the owner of any item or their respective servants and agents arising in any circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of any claim made by any party as to negligence or lack of care of the Auctioneers or any part acting on their behalf.

4. The Auction (a) The Auctioneer has absolute discretion to divide any lot, to combine any two or more lots or to withdraw any lot or lots from the sale, to refuse bids, regulate bidding or cancel the sale without in any case giving any reason or previous notice. He may bid on behalf of the vendor for all goods which are being offered subject to reserve or at the Auctioneer’s discretion. (b) The highest bidder shall be the buyer except in the case of a dispute. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute had arisen.
