Adam's IMPORTANT IRISH ART 27 SEPTEMBER 2023

www.adams.ie Important Irish Art | 27 September 2023 79 71 WILLIAM HENRY BARTLETT ROI, RBC (1858-1932) Heading to the Mainland Oil on panel, 24.5 x 35cm (9½ x 13¾”) Signed € 5,000 - 8,000 Not to be confused with the similarly named topographical artist W.H. Bartlett (1809-1854), little appears to be known about this accomplished painter. His numerous Irish scenes concentrate primarily on the lives and activities of fisherfolk on the western coast, such as gathering kelp; un- loading turf; farmers moving stock, and travelling from one island to another, of which the present work is a fine example.
