Fran McCann
Born in Belfast in 1945,
Fran McCann has since
moved to live in the West
of Ireland. Driven by art,
studying for a period with
John Luke, much of his
inspiration comes from
music and the results are
the fusion which can be
seen in his art and these
works are good examples
of his substantial ability.

Desmond Hickey attended the National College of Art and Design during the late 1970s and
early 1980s. His tutors during this period were John Coyle RHA and Des Carrick RHA. He
was mostly self-taught, and was tutored by Henry Healy RHA. 19th century French painters,
the impressionists, influenced Hickey to a considerable degree and in an Irish context, he
was inspired by Orpen, Leech and Roderic O’Connor. The actual act of painting inspired
him; subject matter was less important than the painting itself, his major concern being
“the manipulation of the paint itself”. Desmond Hickey’s style was one of loose, expressive
brushwork, painting ‘en plein air’ when the opportunity arose and there was a directness and
spontaneity to his work. He was a leading member of the Dublin based ‘Back Lane Painters’.

Bridget Ryan was born and raised in the Connemara village of
Cornamona on the northern shores of Lough Corrib. She is intrigued
by the abandoned farmhouses that surround her in Galway and Mayo.
Many of these have survived since famine times and she is inspired
by their thick stone walls and their simple solid structure. From such
desolation, Bridie, in a bold and primitive style, captures a sense of
mystery, and portrays a beauty in these abandoned structures.

School of Art and was awarded a scholarship to Oslo University. Since his return
to Ireland, having completed a BA in Fine Art, he has exhibited extensively both
at home and abroad and has been a regular exhibitor at the Irish Exhibition of
Living Art, The Royal Hibernian Academy, EVA in Limerick, among many
others. Henry has been inspired by the local landscape, from the Burren to
the Clare Glens and the coast of Clare and beyond. These rugged landscapes
feature strongly in his work, and he continues to carve his niche among the
higher echelons of Irish Art. A contemporary artist of substance, his work is
now included in many public and private collections.

A primitive painter, a colourful character, a man of great complexity – these are all
descriptions which have been used to describe Markey Robinson over the years. Born
in Belfast in 1918; Markey Robinson is regarded as one of the great Northern Masters.
In a sixty year career, Markey’s unique and vibrant paintings fully demonstrate his
genius for composition. His signature style and his range of themes are readily
identifiable – rural landscapes, women in shawls and sad-looking clowns. His work
was collected by Queen Elizabeth II and he is represented in many public and private
collections around the globe. Art Historian, Susan Stairs in her biography on Markey
probably summed him up best when she said of him, ‘there is a genius in our midst’.

Born in 1940, Manus Walsh began his career in the field of stained glass, working for the Abbey Stained Glass
Studios in Dublin, in the sixties. It was during his time there that he met artist, George Campbell, who became his
mentor and friend, and also encouraged him to take up painting full time. Among Manus’s many stained glass
designs are five windows for Galway Cathedral, and more recently in St John’s Church, Ballyvaughan. The landscape
of the Burren has been a constant inspiration to him for the past thirty years and more, and its barren limestone
landscape continues to be a major influence on his work. Manus has travelled widely, spending considerable
periods of time, in both Spain and Chile, and the Spanish landscape, together with the city of Valparaiso continue
to be a significant influence. Walsh has exhibited widely at home and abroad, including four exhibitions in South
America and numerous one man shows and he is widely regarded as an important contemporary artist.

I will always remember with fondness
my visits to Geraldine O’Brien in her
beloved Parteen, and my abiding
memory will be her wonderful laugh
and good humour, as we walked
through the gardens and into her
studio which she told me with glee,
has always been called the ‘piggery’.  I stood in the studio with Geraldine’s
dogs about our feet, and it was a
privilege to be there.  It was like
stepping back in time. Here was the
studio of a real artist, with her easel
and paints, and what looked like
hundreds of brushes, and paintings
all around us, work dating back over
six decades to the 1940’s, most of
which had been undisturbed for years
and years. A veritable treasure-trove.

Born in 1942 in London, Arthur Maderson studied Fine Art from the late 1950’s at Camberwell School of
Art, where his tutors included artists of International standing, such as Frank Auerbach, Henry Inlander
and Robert Medley. Although continuing to paint, it was not until 1982, at the age of 40 that he felt ready
to exhibit. From that period, he has enjoyed considerable success, with sell out shows. His reputation as
a painter of distinction and passion is firmly established, and he is widely recognised as one of Ireland’s
strongest figurative painters. He works with determination and vigour, and now divides his time between
his home in Ireland and a largely unpopulated mountainous region of the Cevenne, in France. His work is
featured in numerous publications, most recently in Robert O’Byrne’s, authoritative work on ‘Living Irish
Artists’. An outstanding artist of his generation, Arthur Maderson has exhibited at the Royal Academy, The
Royal West of England Academy and the Royal Hibernian Academy.

Alan Kenny
b.1959
Alan Kenny’s artistic journey has
involved dramatic changes in style.
Initially a painter in the plein air
tradition, his earlier landscapes were quite conventional. After many years,
he abandoned traditional landscape
to develop his own Americanflavoured dream-like vision. Today,
he is recognised for his colourful,
imaginative and largely narrative
paintings, boasting a vast array of
themes, such as musicians in a
romantic, melodious aura with an
idyllic sense of fun and humour. A key
component is his rampant, irresistible
exploitation of colour, creating an
almost stained-glass effect.

self taught artist who began painting at
the age of twenty four. In 1996 he held

of painting and he has become very well
known for his classical still-life work.

Orla Egan
Orla Egan’s distinctive style
as a figurative painter in the
primitive tradition, gains
her instant recognition. Her
childhood in the West of
Ireland and Donegal has been
a dominant influence in her
portrayal of town and village
life. Orla’s work developed
under the influence of,
among others, Derek Hill.
She has exhibited widely
and with the RHA and the
RUA. Her work can be found
in many public collections
including those of the ESB,
and Duchas.

TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE
1. Definitions
In these Conditions, West of Ireland Art Auctions Limited,
trading as Dolan’s Art Auction House, who act as auctioneers
and agents for the vendor, are called ‘The Auctioneers’
(which expression shall be deemed to include their servants
and agents) and the representative of Dolan’s Art Auction
House conducting the auction is called ‘The Auctioneer’. As
auctioneers, Dolan’s act as agent for the seller. A sale contract
is made directly between the seller and the buyer. However,
Dolan’s may own a lot (and in such circumstances act in a
principal capacity as seller) and/or may have a legal, beneficial
or financial interest in a lot.
2. Third Party Liability
Every person at or on the ‘Auctioneers’ premises or at any
premises being used by the Auctioneer at any time shall be
deemed to be there entirely at his/her own risk and shall
have no claim whatsoever against the Auctioneers or their
servants or agents in respect of any accident or incident which
may occur, nor any injury, damage or loss howsoever arising
and whether or not same is the subject of any allegation of
negligence.
3. General
Whilst the Auctioneers make every effort to ensure the
accuracy of their catalogue and the description of every lot:
a) Each lot as set out in the catalogue or as divided or
combined with any other lot or lots is sold by the vendor with
all faults, imperfections and errors of description.
b) The auctioneer shall not be responsible for any
discrepancies between the colour in the catalogue illustration
and that of the original work being offered for sale.
c) Any claim under any Statute must be received in writing by
the Auctioneers within three months of the sale.
d) The Auctioneers shall not be liable for consequential or
resultant loss or damage whether sustained by a Vendor
or a Purchaser or the owner of any item or their respective
servants and agents arising in any circumstances whatsoever
and irrespective of any claim made by any party as to
negligence or lack of care of the Auctioneers or any party
acting on their behalf.
e) All lots are made available for inspection for a reasonable
period prior to auction. A buyer who makes a bid for any
lot thereby acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to
the physical condition, state of repair or restoration, age and
catalogue description of such lot and also that he accepts
these conditions of sale.
Dolan’s knowledge, in relation to each lot, is partially
dependent on information provided by the seller and Dolan’s
are not able to, and do not, carry out exhaustive due diligence
searches on each lot. Bidders acknowledge this fact and accept
responsibility for carrying out inspections and investigations
to satisfy themselves as to the lots they may be interested
in buying. Bidders also acknowledge the fact that many lots
are of an age that they may not be in perfect condition. All
lots are offered for sale with any imperfections. Catalogue
descriptions and condition reports may on occasions make
reference to particular imperfections of a lot, but Bidders
should note that lots may have other faults not expressly
referred to in the catalogue or condition report. Illustrations
are for identification purposes only and will not convey full
information as to the actual condition of lots.
4. The Auction
a) The Auctioneer has absolute discretion to divide any lot,
to combine any two or more lots or to withdraw any lot or
lots from the sale, to refuse bids, regulate bidding or cancel
the sale without in any case giving any reason or previous
notice. He may bid on behalf of the vendor for all goods which
are being offered subject to reserve or at the Auctioneer’s
discretion.
b) The highest bidder shall be the buyer except in the case
of a dispute. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers
that a dispute has arisen, he has absolute discretion to settle
it or to re-offer the lot for sale. The Auctioneer may at his sole
discretion determine the advance or bidding or refuse a bid.
c) Each lot is put up for sale subject to any reserve price placed
by the vendor. Whether or not there is a reserve price the
seller has the right to bid either personally or by any other
person (who may be the Auctioneer).
d) All conditions, notices, descriptions, statements and other
matters in the catalogue and elsewhere concerning any lot are
subject to any statements modifying or affecting the same
made by the Auctioneer from the rostrum prior to any bid
being accepted for the lot.
5. Rescindment
Notwithstanding any other terms of these Conditions, if
within 12 months after the sale, the Auctioneers have received
from the buyer any notice in writing that in his view the lot
is a deliberate forgery and within twenty one days after such
notification the buyer returns the same to the Auctioneers
in the same condition as at the time of sale and by producing
evidence, the burden of proof to be upon the buyer, satisfies
the Auctioneers that considered in the light of the entry in the
catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery, then the sale of the lot
will be rescinded and the purchase price of the sale refunded.
In the event of a dispute then the matter shall be settled by
the President of the Institution of Chartered Surveyors in the
Republic of Ireland. Both the buyer and the vendor agree to be
bound by the decision.
6. Default
The Auctioneers disclaim responsibility for default by either
the buyer or the vendor because they act as Agents for the
vendor only and therefore do not pay out to the vendor until
payment is received from the buyer. Instructions given by
telephone are accepted at the sender’s risk and must be
confirmed in writing forthwith. In the event of a sale by
private treaty both the vendor and the buyer agree to be bound
by these conditions and any other special conditions of sale.
7. Retention of Title
All goods remain the property of the vendor until paid for in
full. The Auctioneers will not assume liability to discharge
net proceeds arising from the sale of goods until those goods
have been paid for in full.
8. Instructions
All goods delivered to the Auctioneers’ premises will be
deemed to be delivered for sale by auction and will be
catalogued and sold at the discretion of the Auctioneer
and accepted by them subject to all the Sale Conditions. By
delivering the goods to the Auctioneers for inclusion in their
auction sales the vendor acknowledges that he or she has
accepted and agreed to be bound by all these Conditions.
9. Collection and Deliveries
The Auctioneers do not normally undertake the packing,
collection or delivery of goods but will if requested use their
best endeavours as Agent of the Owner to arrange for an
independent contractor on the owner’s behalf to deal with
packing, collection and/or delivery. The Auctioneer will
not in any event arrange insurance of the goods and will
accordingly not be liable for any loss or damage to goods
howsoever arising including breakages or for any damage
to premises, fixtures or fittings therein caused by such
contractor or otherwise and the owner is responsive for all
arrangements to verify that any such contractor and the
goods is/are appropriately insured. Unless instructions are
received to the contrary, charges (including VAT) for such
services will be charged to the vendor’s account or discharged
through the Auctioneers by the purchaser as the case may be.
The Auctioneers’ liability (if any) will arise only where they
themselves carry out packing and collection/delivery and
only in the case of breakage or loss caused through deliberate
negligence of their employees and in any event in one single
contract and the Auctioneers’ liability will not exceed =
C500.
Provided further the Auctioneers will not be liable for
consequential loss in any circumstances whatsoever.
10. Loss or Damage and Storage
The Auctioneers reserve the right to store or arrange for the
storage of goods held by them or delivered to them either on
their own premises or elsewhere at their sole discretion and
entirely at the owner’s risk. The Auctioneers shall not be
liable for any loss (including consequential loss) howsoever
caused or damage to goods of any kind including breakages,
or for unauthorised removal of goods.
11. Right to Re-sell
The Auctioneer reserves the right to re-sell any item that has
not been collected within fourteen days.
12. Telephone bidding
Every effort will be made to facilitate persons wishing to
bid by telephone at auction but the auctioneer disclaims
responsibility for any failures for whatever reason, in this
regard.
13. Absentee Bidding
Every effort will be made to facilitate persons wishing to
leave commission bids with the auctioneer but the auctioneer
disclaims responsibility for any failures for whatever reason,
in this regard.
14. Droit de Suite
The artist’s resale levy, the droit de suite, where applicable,
will be deemed to be the responsibility of the vendor. Dolan’s
Art Auction House will not charge this levy to the purchaser.
The vendor by entering his goods for sale with Dolan’s Art
Auction House acknowledges that he/she is responsible for
the payment of this artist’s resale levy. Dolan’s Art Auction
House will not be responsible for payment of the droit de
suite and the vendor by entering his/her goods for sale
acknowledges that he/she has accepted and agreed to be
bound by this condition of sale. Furthermore Dolan’s Art
Auction House accepts goods for sale from the vendor on
the condition that the vendor authorizes Dolan’s Art Auction
House to withhold monies due for payment of the droit de
suite from the auction proceeds due to the vendor, and the
vendor further authorizes Dolan’s Art Auction House to
pay the droit de suite, on the vendors behalf, to the artist.
Furthermore the vendor acknowledges that the droit de suite
payment where applicable will be charged to the vendors
account in addition to the vendors commission charged by the
auctioneer and any illustration or other charges applicable to
the account.
15. Special Conditions
PURCHASER:
a) The purchaser shall pay a commission to the auctioneer,
viz. a Buyer’s Premium, of 20% plus VAT on the hammer
price of each lot.
b) The Purchaser acknowledges that the auctioneer may also
receive a commission from the vendor.
c) All accounts must be discharged by certified cheque, bank
draft or cash. The auctioneer reserves the right not to release
goods until cheque payments have been cleared by the bank.
Credit cards are also accepted with a 2.5% surcharge. Non-Irish debit cards will incur a 2.5% surcharge
d) Responsibility for items purchased passes to the purchaser
on the fall of the hammer. The Auctioneers reserve the right
to look for a 25% deposit on all goods.
e) The buyer authorises the Auctioneer to use any
photographs, drawings or illustrations of any lot purchased by
the buyer, and, to indicate the price paid at auction for the lot,
and the buyer acknowledges that same may be used for any
advertising, promotional or other such purposes.
16. Purchasers will NOT be charged the Artists Resale Levy.
17. VAT Regulations:
All lots are sold within the Auctioneers VAT margin scheme.
Revenue regulations require that the buyers premium must
be invoiced at a rate which is inclusive of VAT. This VAT is
NOT recoverable by any VAT registered buyers.
