Henry Albert Hartland,
Irish 1840-1893-
Lake Killarney, Ross Island;
watercolour on paper, signed 'Albert Hartland' (lower left), bears label inscribed 'Lake Killarney Ross Island' attached verso, 28.8 x 59.2 cm.
Provenance:
Private Collection, UK.
Note:
Hartland began his artistic career as an illustrator for a Cork bookseller and building scenery for the Cork Theatre and the Theatre Royal, Dublin. However, he is best known for his atmospheric watercolours of the Irish countryside, with his depictions of expansive landscapes occupied only by diminutive figures in the distance, as in this instance, or, often, with no trace of human presence at all, imparting a particular sense of peace and tranquility to his oeuvre.
