Item Details

Pair of early 19th century watercolours by Robert Richard Scanlan (1801-1876) who was an Irish artist who specialised in portrait groups illustrating the humour in Irish society.


This pair of watercolours shows men in a tavern, paying particular attention to their faces. Very skilfully executed and full of Irish humour.


Housed in the original frames and mounts, there are signs of yellowing commensurate with age,  However, the paintings themselves are in  good condition.


Signed and dated 1838 and 1840.


R.R. Scanlan's works have become very collectable and sadly hard to come by.
