Iveagh Gallery

Popped into this tiny little place today, Paddy (the owner) really has crammed a lot in there. All Irish paintings, it’s actually very overwhelming going through them all.
Paddy really educated the philistine in me today. He showed me two paintings by the famed Sir John Lavery and his wife Lady Hazel Lavery née Martyn. He also has the work of Rowan Gillespie and some exquisite harps.
I was bowled over to be so close to so much Irish artistic history, I studied this stuff in school but I never thought that I would see the real thing so closely and also to have a personal free tour guide.
His website is excellent, it lists all the artists he has and their history. If you are interested in Irish Art, check this place out, please!
