Paul Henry

While traveling in Dublin last month I visited the National Gallery of Ireland, a small, but lovely museum in central Dublin.  I was taken by the work of Ulster born painter, Paul Henry (1876-1958) and wished that they had more of his work.  I find his work moving and full of depth and contrasts-much like the Irish.
