Lot Essay
Nathaniel Hone the Younger, great-grandnephew of his namesake, a founder member of the Royal Academy, was one of Ireland's most important painters of the 19th Century. He initially trained at Trininy College Dublin as an engineer, before going to Paris in 1853 to study painting under Adolphe Yvon and Thomas Couture. Hone moved to the village of Barbizon in around 1856, where he worked alongside Millet, Courber and Daubigny, before bringing the style and its plein air sensibilities back to Ireland in 1872. His widow gave the contents of his studio to the National Gallery of Ireland in 1919 - the largest single donation in its history.
