  • MEMORIES OF WHEN CORK CITY WAS THE VENICE OF THE NORTH

    There is water everywhere in William Roe’s 1837/38 views of Cork which come up as lot 17 at Mullens Collectors Cabinet online sale on September 11.  Much of the city as we know it today is built on reclaimed land.  The lot consists of seven framed sheets each with between two and four views of Cork city and environs.  It is estimated at €2,000-€3,000.  Works by Roe were displayed at the Cork Exhibition of 1852. UPDATE: THIS MADE 2,000 AT HAMMER
