A brush with Dublin artists

Sir, – I am researching the depiction of Dublin city by visual artists in the period c.1920-1950

Sir, – I am researching the depiction of Dublin city by visual artists in the period c.1920-1950. Artists in this research are, among others, George Collie (1904-75), Josephine Carson (dates unknown), Harry Kernoff (1900-74) and Estella Solomons (1882-1968). These artists were exhibiting widely during this time with groups such as the Watercolour Society of Ireland, the Royal Hibernian Academy and the Dublin Sketching Club.

To aid this research, I am seeking information on the life and work of these artists. In addition, details of individual works of art would be particularly appreciated. A more complete listing of artists relevant to this topic is available from depictingdublin.wordpress.com/ artists. – Yours, etc,
