Description
Title: ACHILL
Note: There is a cottage with smoke coming from the chimney. Heavy impasto is used throughout which is unusual for Paul Henry, notably in the heavily-laden clouds. The setting seems impossible to identify but it is probably deep in the mountains. A Combridge label is on the reverse, as originally framed by them, and too the figure of '£65' and the name 'Achill'. Combridge were Henry's agent. Achill is numbered 1351 in S. B. Kennedy's ongoing catalogue of Paul Henry's work. Dr SB Kennedy July 2018
