GEORGE BARRET SNR (c.1728-1784)A Mountainous Wooded River Landscape with a Waterfall and Three FiguresOil on canvas, 96.5 x 125.7cmProvenance: Senator Edward McGuire, Newtown Park, Blackrock, Co. Dublin; Christie's, 21st March 1969, Lot 80George Barret was a friend of Edmund Burke (1729-1797) - and their work therefore engages an Anglo-Irish perspective on landscape which requires an inherent connection between aesthetics and politics which, like other aspects of Irish history, have been underplayed in the dominant narratives of British art. The son of a tailor, Barret was born in Dublin. He was to become a founding member of the Royal Academy in 1768, and his work was popular in his lifetime. According to Thomas Bodkin, “George Barret, the elder, was reputed in his day, to be the greatest landscape painter whom Ireland, England, or Scotland had till then produced.” Despite this Barret experienced the vicissitudes of the eighteenth century art market and ended his life in relative obscurity and bankruptcy. Although he attained the title of Official Painter to the Chelsea Royal Hospital in 1782 thanks to Burke’s intervention, Barret died before he was able to take it up. In his stead, his son James assumed the role. As friend of Burke, with whom Barret shared an Anglo-Irish background, Barret’s work explores the ideas of the Sublime, reflecting the influence of Burke’s treatise A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and the Beautiful (1756). A panoramic view of the Lake District (c.1780) commissioned by William Locke to decorate a room at his house, Norbury Park, Surrey, is considered Barret’s masterpiece. Despite Barret’s success as a painter, his position at the Royal Academy and the support he received from Burke, he has historically been seen as belonging to a lower tier of artistic merit than his better-known contemporaries. Contemporary painters such as Wilson themselves perceived this inequality, describing Barret’s paintings as depicting foliage like “spinach and eggs.” Unlike Wilson, Barret did not travel to Italy, and borrowed his classical motifs from prints or from Wilson’s paintings in order to cater to the tastes of his grand tourist patrons. Barret required to make a living from his work and many of his paintings were primarily intended for sale or as part of interior decoration commissions, for which Barret gained much contemporary commercial success - as at Norbury Park. Similarly lucrative commissions include ten views of Welbeck Abbey, Nottinghamshire, which Barret had painted in 1765-7 for William Henry Cavendish-Bentinck, 3rd Duke of Portland, and 1768 he received a similar commission from Henry Scott, 3rd Duke of Buccleuch to record the mountainous landscapes around Dalkeith Park, Lothian, as in A Rocky River Scene. These pictures were exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1769 and 1771.Based on a stylistic analysis the present picture was painted before Barret’s move to London around 1763 and is most certainly an Irish view. The composition was influenced by Burke’s ideas on the Sublime and the Beautiful. The enhanced detail of this early painting in the style of romantic realism creates a ‘sublime’ mood. It is rumoured that Burke introduced Barret to the Dargle Valley near Powerscourt Falls during the early 1760s leading to a connection with one of Barret’s earliest patrons, Lord Powerscourt, owner of this property. Patrons such as the Taylours of Headford and the Conollys of Castletown began to commission series of topographical paintings. These landscapes demonstrated the extent of Barret’s talent and helped him establish his reputation in London. Barret soon began exhibiting views of the Dargle Valley at the Society of Artists of Great Britain. This painting has several characteristics typical of Barret’s work including the framing of the trees, diffused light and the heavy application of and the use of saturated colour. To the right of the composition, a cluster of trees and foliage almost reach the top of the canvas. In the centre there is a view of distant hills beyond a waterfall in the middle ground slightly to the right. The finely detailed figures in the foreground towards the bottom right corner catch the viewer’s eye, given the complimentary use of red to depict their clothing. One balances on a fallen tree near two anglers apparently in conversation. The distinctive brown palette is vaguely reminiscent of the Dutch artist Jacob van Ruisdael whose work Barret had studied while painting under Robert West in the Royal Dublin Society.A considerable number of Barret’s early stylistic features are present in the painting and can be seen in other pictures executed around the same period. The repeated traits typically include a dominating tree on one side of the painting; a body of water or waterfall in the centre, or slightly placed to the right, and a distant view of mountains or hills. For example, an ex-Gorry Gallery piece, An Irish Landscape inspired by the Dargle Valley, must have been painted around the same time. The views are similar in size, composition and, colour palettes. Both paintings have anglers dressed in red and are lit by diffused light. The National Gallery of Ireland’s: An Extensive Wooded Landscape with Fishermen Hauling in their Nets in the Foreground also shares the same basic elements with the overall effect of creating the sublime grandeur, as inspired by Burke.Logan MorseAugust 2017

signed on the reverse stencil and mixed media on metal shelf 91 by 43cm The proceeds of the sale of the following lot will benefit Greatmore Studios Bambi is a contemporary British street artist whose work was first noticed in 2011 in the streets of London. Not much is known about the personal life of the artist who has gained popularity under the pseudonym derived from her childhood family name ?Bambino?. While her identity remains a well-kept secret, she has disclosed that she was previously a prominent singer. Described by many as the female Banksy, her work has been sought after by various collectors including the likes of Rihanna, Robbie Williams, Brad Pitt and Adele. Working in the streets of Northern London, she presents critiques of contemporary culture, often using images of popular contemporary icons to illustrate the commodification of the art world and other social, political and environmental issues. Her work Tata (Yellow) 2013, depicts Nelson Mandela in a signature bright shirt and was created in the same year as his passing. The title, Tata, references Mandela?s nickname which he was often fondly referred to and includes the phrase ?It always seems impossible until it?s done?. This piece is a celebration of Mandela?s hope, strength and resilience that inspire millions around the world to this day. Its popularity is evident when one considers the numerous graphic reproductions of this work that are still being sold. ?I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. It always seems impossible until it?s done.? -Nelson Mandela - Caitlin Snethlage

signed colour silkscreen and offset lithograph on wallpaper 53 by 52cm Damien Hirst, arguably the most celebrated creative to come from the Young British Artists (YBAs) movement, completed his training at Goldsmiths College in London. In 1988 Hirst conceived and created ?Freeze?an exhibition of his work as well as the work of his fellow students at Goldsmiths. In the 28 years following that show, Hirst has become one of the most prominent artists of his generation. His work is widely recognised, from the shark suspended in formaldehyde, The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living (1991) and his spot, spin and butterfly paintings, through to later works like For the Love of God (2007), a diamond encrusted skull. Throughout his work, Hirst takes a direct and challenging approach to ideas about existence. His work calls into question our awareness and convictions about the boundaries that separate desire and fear, life and death, reason and faith, love and hate. Hirst uses the tools and iconography of science and religion, creating sculptures and paintings whose beauty and intensity offer the viewer insight into art that transcends our familiar understanding of those domains. ?There are four important things in life: religion, love, art and science,? the artist has said. ?At their best, they?re all just tools to help you find a path through the darkness. None of them really work that well, but they help. Of them all, science seems to be the one right now. Like religion, it provides the glimmer of hope that maybe it will be alright in the end.? The wallpaper exhibited in lot 816 takes its name from the Tate Britain exhibition in which it was originally used to clad the walls of this highly respected institution. The name for the exhibition, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, was borrowed from the title track of an LP released in 1968 by the rock band, Iron Butterfly. The song was originally going to be called ?In the Garden of Eden?. Legend has it that the lead singer was so drunk when he first announced the song?s title that one of the band members wrote down phonetically the slurred words ?In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida?. The title suggests an overt theme: broadly, the contemporary consequences of the original myth of falling from grace, but the exhibition also reveals the differing formal and material approaches of three artists, Sarah Lucas, Angus Fairhurst and Damien Hirst, and how they use metaphor in diverse ways. In this exhibition, Hirst constructed complex installations inside vitrines and displayed grandiose collages using real butterflies and flies in addition to designing the very intricate wallpaper which we see in lot 816.- Barkham, P., Damien Hirst?s Butterflies: Distressing but Weirdly Uplifting, The Guardian, 18 April 2012 Online, available: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2012/apr/18/damien-hirst-butterflies-weirdly-uplifting- Gagosian, Damien Hirst.

Elizabeth Rivers (1903-1964) BULLY BOYS oil on board with artist's estate studio label on reverse Estate of the artist;Estate of Judge Desmond Windle 'Elizabeth Rivers Exhibition', Frederick Gallery, Dublin, October 1996, no. 34 The Art Collection of Desmond P.H. Windle (1933-2014) Whyte’s are proud to present the collection of pictures and sculpture formed by Desmond Windle, a distinguished lawyer and art lover. Desmond’s life-long interest in art developed as a young solicitor in 1950s Dublin, inspired by his aunt’s (Molly Matthews) love of art. A regular attendee at galleries and studios, he collected modern and contemporary Irish art for over 60 years. He supported many young emerging artists and, in the early days, acquired some paintings by way of barter in exchange for legal advice to the frequently impecunious artists being threatened with eviction. Invariably their tenancy was secured. He never stopped collecting and decorated all available wall space in his home with a diverse collection of works and, thereafter, most available floor space. Favourites included works by Patrick Collins, John Behan, Michael Kane, Gerald Davis, Felim Egan, Robert Ballagh, Charles Brady, Charles Harper, George Campbell, Bernadette Madden and Seán McSweeney. Works from this wonderful collection, included in this 2 October 2017 sale, are lots 2, 5, 10, 15, 20, 26, 35, 48, 50, 53, 54, 56, 58, 59, 62, 66, 67, 91, 92, 94, 102, 103, 111, 112, 116, 120, 121, 122, 124 and 169.
