Summary

"Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane is home to one of Ireland's foremost collections of modern and contemporary art. This book, published in celebration of the opening of the newly extended Gallery, presents 120 of the most outstanding works in the collection." "Paintings and sculptures by such Impressionist and Barbizon artists as Camille, Corot, Edouard Manet, Claude Monet and Edgar Degas are explored alongside those of their Irish counterparts Walter Osborne, Frank O'Meara and John Lavery. Continuing into the twentieth century, major works by Maurice de Vlaminck, Henry Moore, Philip Guston and Ellsworth Kelly accompany such Irish masterpieces as the nationalist-inspired canvases of Seas Keating and Maurice McGonigal, and the Modernist works of Jack B. Yeats and Mainie Jellett."--BOOK JACKET.
