A previously unseen painting of a Connemara village by Paul Henry will be among the highlights at the James Adam sale of Important Irish Art in Dublin in March.
In fact this classical Henry work, never before seen in public and from the collection of late mid 20th century Fine Gael Taoiseach John A Costello, has never before been on the open market.
Adams is estimating the work, which measures 12″ x 15 ¾”, at 70,000-100,000. They promise that the auction on March 23 will be full of interest.
UPDATE: THIS SOLD FOR 119,000 AT HAMMER
