Madam, - We look forward to publishing John Montague's new collection, Drunken Sailor, which includes a poem called "Sea Bird" after a painting by Gerard Dillon. We are keen to trace this painting which was once reproduced in black-and-white in The Irish Times. We have drawn blanks in our enquiries and wonder if any of your readers can direct us to the original. We would appreciate any information as to its whereabouts. - Yours, etc.,

PETER FALLON, The Gallery Press, Loughcrew, Oldcastle, Co Meath.
