Paul Henry R.H.A. (Irish, 1876-1958)

Hayricks
oil on canvas
25.4 x 35 cm. (10 x 12 in.)
Painted circa 1925

Footnotes

Provenance
Mr. Judah Greenzaid, Washington D.C., U.S.A., from whom acquired by the present owner

Although this picture is unsigned it is undoubtedly by Paul Henry. The treatment throughout is of Henry. The cottages themselves are by Henry's hand, as is the single cottage in the middle distance, the hayricks in the foreground, the trees beyond and the treatment of the sky. The immediate foreground is evocative of Henry's handling of paint in short brush strokes and his handling of the right-hand hayrick with its part palette knife treatment.

Hayricks is numbered 1338 in the ongoing catalogue of Paul Henry's oeuvre by S.B. Kennedy and we are grateful to him for compiling this catalogue entry.
