Provenance:

Private Collection, Winnipeg

Literature:

Sheehy, Jeanne. "Rediscovery of Ireland's Past: The Celtic Revival, 1830-1930," 1980.

Note:

The art historian Jeanne Sheehy wrote: “Most of his work is interesting, but particularly exciting is the series in which wildflowers in the foreground form a screen through which we dimly perceive the landscape. The paintings have a sharpness and naïveté which is totally captivating. He is evidently a master of the watercolour medium.”
