Lot 33
Paul Henry RHA (1877-1958)Landscape with CottagesOil on board, 29 x 39cm (11½ x 15¼'')SignedAcquired from a London gallery in the late 1920’s, this previously unrecorded work was recently discovered in Bavaria where it has passed down through the family of the original purchaser. Painted in the 1920’s after Paul Henry’s long sojourn in Achill had come to an end and after he had returned to live in Dublin, it could well be a view in Achill Sound with Corraun in the background. Henry often produced compositions that were closely related to one another and this work has a familiar treatment of the foreground with the reflections of the cottages and the wonderful billowing clouds. The exquisite blue mountains have a magisterial quality and their modelling, with the clever use of translucent glazes, provides a sense of both scale and perspective. It is for such works that Paul Henry rightfully deserves his place as Ireland’s foremost landscape painter of the 20th century.This work is numbered 1356 in S.B.Kennedy’s on-going catalogue of Paul Henry’s oeuvre.

W. McCart Collection; Mrs D. MacCallum CollectionA similar plate in the Sir Jeremy Lever Collection, Part I, Bonhams.Vendor's Note: According to John Sandon. The origin of the decoration on this plate is somewhat puzzling. The scale blue ground and printed landscape must surely have been applied at the Worcester factory. However, the gilded borders around the plate show strong similarity with those found on pieces with undoubted Giles enamelling, it is therefore assumed that the colouring in of the prints and the gilding was done at the Giles workshop.
