James Mac Carthy (b.1945) GIRL READING, 1986 bronze with green patina on wooden base (no. 3 from an edition of 6) signed [MAC] and numbered on seat 10 by 5 by 5in. (25.40 by 12.70 by 12.70cm) Dimensions of base: 6.5 by 5.5 by 1ins. This work was cast by the artist in Dunmanway, Cork in 1986 and sold to the present owner the following year. We are grateful to the artist for his assistance in cataloguing this lot. Jim O`Driscoll was a renowned barrister by profession but also a passionate patron of the arts with a keen eye for beauty. Director of the Fenton Gallery in Cork for ten years, he built lasting ties with the arts community buying regularly from galleries throughout Ireland as well as from artists directly. His strong connections with Cork in particular are reflected in both his subject choice and his support for its native artists, among them, Maurice Desmond and Pat Connor. He was an early supporter and friend of Tony O`Malley and the late William Crozier and their paintings within his collection are testament to his access to the very best from their respective oeuvres. All the masters in Irish art from the eighties and nineties are well represented here, although some, for example those by Patrick Collins and Gerard Dillon, come from an earlier generation. This outstanding collection represents the powerful imprint of a true collector who was guided not only by his trained eye for quality but by a passion for interesting and authentic artworks.
