GREAT IRISH INTERIORS

It is with great pride and anticipation that we present Great Irish Interiors—a landmark auction celebrating centuries of inspired collecting, connoisseurship, and cultural exchange.

This exceptional sale brings together treasures from some of Ireland’s finest historic homes and private collections. Each item tells a story—of the Grand Tour and the Age of Enlightenment, and the expansion of Empires and the flourishing trade with China and the Middle East. These global influences shaped the elegant interiors of these great Irish houses, and today, we are honoured to offer works that reflect this legacy of taste and discovery.

Highlights include magnificent 18th-century English bracket clocks, the finest ormolu masterpieces from key French clockmakers, and early Irish cartography of remarkable detail and rarity. Important signed furniture, European sculptures in bronze and marble, and a museum-quality Royal Felletin verdure tapestry add gravitas and grandeur. From Roman coins to ancient ammonites, rare Irish whiskey to exceptional oriental rugs, this auction is a journey through time, art, science, and craftsmanship.

We are particularly excited to feature important 17th- and 18thcentury Irish, English, and European art, alongside dazzling diamond jewellery and timepieces by Cartier—each reflecting a chapter in the story of refined living.

Whether you are a seasoned collector or a first-time buyer, we invite you to be part of this extraordinary event. Great Irish Interiors is more than an auction—it is a celebration of the objects that once shaped, and continue to define, Ireland’s grandest interiors.

“Homeward Bound”, oil on canvas, signed lower left; inscribed Arthur Ackermann & Son, New Bond Street, London to verso

An equestrian scene featuring a huntsman walking beside his saddled horse under a windswept sky, the landscape rendered with Alken’s trademark fluency and narrative charm. The title, “Homeward Bound,” aptly captures the moment of return and rest after the rigours of the hunt.

Henry Alken Snr was one of the leading British sporting artists of the 19th century, celebrated for his paintings, drawings, and engravings of fox hunting, coaching, and racing scenes. A prolific illustrator, his work was widely published and collected. Alken’s dynamic compositions and characteristic humour made him a favourite among sporting gentlemen of the period. His works are represented in many British institutional collections, including the British Museum and the Tate.

IRISH SCHOOL

The Dance. Acrylic on canvas. Initialled. Framed.

The Dance bursts with kinetic energy, expressed through gestural strokes and vivid tones of red and white. A modern work in acrylic, its abstraction hints at rhythmic movement and spontaneity, while the initials suggest a personal, expressive signature. Framed in white, the work offers a bold contemporary contrast suitable for modern collections.

The Irish School in this context refers to a body of anonymous or lesser-known contemporary artists working within Ireland. Such works often draw from Ireland’s strong tradition in both abstraction and narrative figuration, focusing on personal expression, cultural themes, or formal exploration in a modern or postmodern idiom.

Sydney Bowser was a key member of the West Brom side that reached the 1912 FA Cup Final, eventually losing 1–0 to Barnsley in a replay held at Bramall Lane. This medal stands as a personal memento of one of the club’s early 20th-century high points.

JOHN BUTLER YEATS RHA (1839 - 1922)

Edith. Pencil on Paper

Provenance: Yeats Family Collection; Private Collection

Framed

John Butler Yeats’s drawing Edith is an intimate pencil portrait that exudes the grace and sensitivity characteristic of this master draughtsman’s work. Likely drawn from life, the piece presents the head and shoulders of a young woman identified as “Edith” – a name inscribed by the artist, possibly referring to the sitter’s identity or a dedication. Yeats has captured Edith in profile (or a gentle three-quarter view), her gaze directed softly downward as if lost in thought. The pencil line is fluid and confident: with a few elegant strokes, he delineates the contours of her face, the sweep of her hair gathered loosely, and the line of her neck and shoulders. Delicate shading modulates the play of light across her features, giving volume to her cheek and the subtle shadow beneath her chin. The overall handling is spontaneous yet precise, balancing realism with an impression of fleeting presence – one senses the living moment of the sitting in the quick, lively touches around the eyes and mouth. Edith’s expression is serene, perhaps tinged with melancholy or introspection, inviting the viewer to wonder about her story and her connection to the artist. Yeats often imbued his portrait drawings with a soulful quality, and this is no exception: Edith emanates a quiet emotional depth. The background of the paper is left mostly blank, focusing all attention on the subject. In one corner, John Butler Yeats has written an inscription, possibly the sitter’s name and a date, in his graceful script, further personalizing the sketch. This drawing not only showcases Yeats’s superb draughtsmanship and sensitivity to character, but it also holds the charm of an artifact from the Yeats family circle or their milieu – a true collector’s piece linking to one of Ireland’s great artistic legacies.

PIET SLIUS (1929 - 2008)

Woman with Harp. Oil on board. Signed Provenance: Private Collection Framed

Artwork Description

An intriguing oil on board composition depicting a female figure with a harp. Piet Slius (also known as Piet Sluis) uses a modern, expressionistic style to reimagine this classic Irish motif. The woman is portrayed in a stylized manner: her form comprised of sweeping curves and bold lines, and the Irish harp she cradles is suggested with abstract, flowing strings and soundboard. The colour palette is vibrant and unconventional – perhaps rich blues and greens for the background, with the woman’s figure in warm tones of ochre or red, and the harp in contrasting gold hues. Slius’s brushwork is energetic and layered; areas of thin translucent paint are juxtaposed with thicker, opaque strokes, giving the painting a dynamic texture. This approach reflects the artist’s desire “to push the transparency of oil paints… to give them weight and opacity” ballaban.net. The overall mood is at once lyrical and modern: the harp, a symbol of Ireland, is being played by a dreamlike muse. The painting is likely signed by Piet Slius, and while the date is not provided, it is consistent with his mid-20th-century works. “Woman with Harp” stands out as a fusion of musical theme and abstract art, inviting the viewer to feel the rhythm and harmony through colour and form.

AFTER JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT (1960 - 1988)

“Untitled (Devil Head)”, mixed media on canvas, in an ornate gilt frame

This dynamic and expressive composition draws direct inspiration from the visual language of Jean-Michel Basquiat, featuring a bold central skull-like figure rendered with intense energy and graphic immediacy. Neon reds, blacks, and whites are aggressively applied in drips, splatters, and gestural lines, framed against a graffitilike backdrop of chaotic marks and fragmented forms. Housed in an elaborate, antique-style gilt frame, the work provocatively contrasts the rawness of street art with the grandeur of classical presentation.

Jean-Michel Basquiat was a pioneering American artist whose meteoric rise in the 1980s art world reshaped contemporary painting. Starting as a street artist under the tag SAMO in New York City, Basquiat brought a raw, poetic intensity to his canvases, blending expressive abstraction with biting social commentary. His work integrates influences from African art, jazz, anatomy, and historical figures, often exploring themes of race, identity, and power. Today, Basquiat is considered one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, with works housed in major institutions and commanding record-breaking auction prices. Image: 54 x 104 cm.

ANNE TALLENTIRE (B.1949)

Woodland Ride. Oil on canvas. Signed Provenance: Private Collection Framed

Woodland Ride by Anne Tallentire invites the viewer down a sun-dappled path meandering through a dense Irish woodland. Painted in oil on canvas, the scene likely captures a tunnel of green foliage – tall trees arching overhead – with a narrow earthen trail (the “ride”) cutting through the undergrowth. Tallentire’s brushwork here is loose and impressionistic, conveying the flickering play of sunlight and shadow as it filters through leaves onto the forest floor. The colour palette is a rich tapestry of greens: emerald and olive tones for illuminated leaves, deep viridian in the shade, and touches of golden light where the sun breaks through. In the distance, one might glimpse a brighter clearing or sky, drawing the eye forward along the ride. There is a sense of depth created by the narrowing perspective of the path and the overlapping layers of foliage. Tallentire’s attention to the effects of light suggests the scene could be an early morning or late afternoon when the forest is especially tranquil. While primarily a landscape, the painting carries a mood – perhaps the quiet anticipation of a rider or walker about to emerge from the woods. The overall impression is one of natural beauty and serenity, captured with an artist’s keen eye for both detail and atmosphere. Signed by Anne Tallentire, Woodland Ride stands as a testament to her early work in Ireland, marrying traditional landscape subject matter with a fresh, heartfelt execution.

Biography: Anne Tallentire (born 1949) is an Irish artist whose career has encompassed both traditional painting and contemporary conceptual art. Originally from County Armagh, Tallentire received her foundational training in painting in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and this early phase saw her creating landscapes and genre scenes in oils. She moved to London in 1984ebay.com, where her practice evolved towards more experimental and abstract forms, including installation, photography, and video, often exploring themes of space, urban life, and social structures. Despite this shift, Tallentire’s background in fine art painting remained an important underpinning; works like Woodland Ride reflect her ability to capture the essence of a place – in this case, the Irish countryside – with an impressionist’s sensitivity to light and colour. Over the years, she became recognized as a significant contemporary artist, representing Ireland at the Venice Biennale (1999) and co-founding the pioneering artists’ initiative NOS in London. A member of Aosdána in Ireland, Anne Tallentire continues to create art that bridges her painterly roots and conceptual interests, making her an influential figure both in Ireland and the UK.

THE ADORATION OF THE MAGIEXQUISITELY CARVED HIGH RELIEF PLAQUE

A superb 19th-century high relief plaque intricately carved from pale stone, likely alabaster, depicting The Adoration of the Magi with exceptional artistry. A tour de force of miniature carving, the work presents an elaborate composition of kings, attendants, horses, and camels advancing in reverent procession toward the Christ Child. The sculptor achieves remarkable expressive detail: faces are finely individualized, hands delicately posed, and flowing robes captured in dynamic motion. The figures move through a classical architectural ruin, heightening the sense of timeless devotion and grandeur. Housed under convex glass in a black-painted and gilt-mounted oval frame, this is a superb example of Continental neoclassical relief carving in the Grand Tour tradition. Image size: 18.5 x 14 cm.; framed: 25 x 20 cm.

€2,000 - 3,000

A lively watercolour painting by Piet Slius depicting a wedding scene in an imaginative, expressionist fashion. Rather than a literal depiction, Slius conveys the joyous atmosphere of a wedding celebration through a whirl of colour, movement, and semi-abstract figures. One can discern the central couple – perhaps suggested by two elongated figures under a subtle arch or canopy –surrounded by guests rendered in playful strokes. The palette is festive: splashes of bright reds, yellows, and blues mingle to create a sense of music and dance. There might be stylized musicians in one corner with hints of instruments, tying into Slius’s recurring musical motifs. Despite the apparent spontaneity, the composition has balance: the crowd forms a circular rhythm around the couple, and areas of white paper left unpainted act as highlights (like glints of light or the bride’s dress). Slius’s watercolour technique involves fluid, sweeping brush movements and occasional pen-like detailing for facial hints or attire, all contributing to the scene’s energy. The piece is signed “Piet Slius” in the lower left corner, indicating the artist’s hand. “The Wedding” invites viewers to feel the celebratory mood – one can almost hear the laughter and folk music emanating from this vibrant image. It’s a fine example of Slius’s ability to capture social merriment in a modern art style.

FLEMISH SCHOOL (19TH CENTURY)

“Figures and Horses in a Barn”, oil on canvas, signed

This large-scale interior genre painting captures a quiet moment within a barn, with figures at leisure and heavy workhorses resting in the foreground. Richly coloured and dramatically lit, the work typifies the storytelling and technical mastery of the Flemish tradition. The interplay of light and shadow, combined with the attention to costume and architecture, enhances the narrative depth of the scene.

Flemish genre painting evolved through the Dutch Golden Age and into the 19th century, retaining a focus on the daily lives of rural and working communities. Paintings such as this represent a romanticised vision of peasant life, rendered with academic precision and expressive warmth.

SEAN O’ SULLIVAN

Portrait of James Connolly

A historic lithograph print featuring a dignified portrait of James Connolly, one of Ireland’s 1916 Easter Rising leaders. This half-length portrait presents Connolly in a jacket and tie, gazing calmly to the side, rendered in strong yet sensitive pencil strokes (transferred to lithographic stone). The tonal range is rich in this print – deep charcoals define Connolly’s hair and moustache, while softer greys model the contours of his face. Notably, the print bears James Connolly’s facsimile signature as part of the image (a printed signature of Connolly himself is visible beneath the portrait), and it is hand-signed by the artist in pencil at the lower margin. The edition was published in 1936 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Easter Rising, which adds to its historical significance. The lithograph is presented in a period-style frame. With its strong draughtsmanship and patriotic significance, this work is both a collectible piece of Irish history and a fine example of 20th-century portrait printmaking.

ANNE YEATS RHA (1919 - 2001)

Two After Dark. Lithograph. Signed in pencil and numbered 2/70

Provenance: Private Collection

Framed

Two After Dark is a captivating limited-edition lithograph by Anne Yeats that depicts an enigmatic nocturnal scene. In this composition, two indistinct figures are present under the veil of night – perhaps a pair of friends or lovers – rendered in Yeats’s characteristically lyrical and expressive style. The background is a deep velvety blue-black, suggesting the enveloping darkness of an evening sky or a dimly lit interior. Against this, the forms of the two figures are hinted at in flowing shapes of lighter tone – one might discern the curve of shoulders, or the profile of a face turned in conversation. Yeats employs a gentle, almost dreamlike approach: edges are soft, and details are minimal, yet the emotional ambiance is palpable. There is a sense of intimacy and quiet mystery, as if we are observing a private moment or a scene from a folktale. The title Two After Dark invites interpretation – are these two people meeting under starlight? Or two animals, or even abstract spirits of the night? Yeats leaves it open, focusing on mood over narrative. The print’s surface likely shows the textured quality of the lithographic crayon, adding to its richness. Numbered 2 out of an edition of 70 and hand-signed by the artist, this work is not only visually poetic but also a collectible piece of Irish art history. It exemplifies Anne Yeats’s talent for merging the everyday with the fantastical, even in a simple scene of two figures in the dark.
