Gearóid Arthur Hayes

My copy after @SirWilliamOrpen 'Lieutenant Egerton M Letts'. Only had two days with this at the Gorry Gallery before it went to auction @deVeresAuctions Fortunately, I had access to Orpen's palette which helped with pigment matching. #orpen #gearoidhayes #gearoidarthurhayes

My contribution to the upcoming exhibition (November 2025) of Irish art at the Gorry Gallery, Dublin. #irishart #gearoidhayesart #gearoidarthurhayes #stilllife #organic #gorrygallery

Commissions be damned! About to resume work on the 'self-portrait' Walter Osborne should have painted. #walterosborne #walterfrederickosborne #irishart #gearoidhayesart #gearoidarthurhayes #portraiture #irishportraits

This exhibit opens tomorrow at @NotreDame’s Raclin Murphy Museum of Art. We’re proud to be one of the partners who made it possible. See more details here: raclinmurphymuseum.nd.edu/explore/exhibi…

Ne'er before seen watercolour by Walter Frederick Osborne - 'Interior Scene with Figures' (24 x 33cm). Please get in touch if you have any information relating to this piece. Great addition to the ever-expanding catalogue raisonné! #walterosborne #irishart

We’re marking the approach of summer by sharing the painting ‘Summertime’ by Walter Frederick Osborne (1859 – 1903) 🌳 Osborne was an Irish impressionist and post-impressionist portrait and landscape artist 🎨

Walter Frederick Osborne (1859-1903) at the age of 37. Oil on canvas, 41x31 cm (12"x16"). #walterosborne #irishart #gearoidarthurhayes #dublin

A number of these ‘sketches’ (a term Osborne himself used to describe them) have survived and are much sought after by collectors. The sketch after Dublin Streets: A Vendor of Books achieved a hammer price of €16,000 at Adams in 2012. This sketch is offered by deVeres.

This exquisite pen and ink drawing by Walter F Osborne depicts The Return of the Flock which he exhibited in 1885 at the Royal Institute of Painters in Oil Colours (ROI), to which he was elected member in 1890. It was executed after the fact, for the ROI’s Illustrated Catalogue.

Fitzgibbon Street off Mountjoy Square was once one of Dublin's few sloped Georgian streets, with houses stepped down the hill to NCR, similar to Belvedere Place. The houses were demolished and replaced c.1970 by Fitzgibbon Court - 54 flats in blocks set back from the street line.

It's terrific to see the leadership that @LimerickCouncil has provided in tackling dereliction. But projects should aspire to a better conservation standard. We should not be losing traditional sash windows, doors, chimneys and finishes. Irish towns are defined by these elements.

Superb insights from @Gordonwdarcy on the Counter Ruck Podcast @IrishTimes open.spotify.com/episode/4Zuglb…

#HeritageAtRisk Charming but derelict mid-Victorian gate lodge at entrance to former Beech Park house (ruin), Ennis, Co Clare. It would not be prohibitively expensive to put this small building back into repair and use. 📷: 1. 2009 2 & 3. Current 4. 1911 OS map #DerelictIreland

Two interesting pieces by Walter Frederick Osborne coming up @Adams1887 this evening. The landscape (lot 12) is entitled 'Lake in Connemara' - a pint 🍺 for anyone who can identify the specific location! #walterosborne #gearoidarthurhayes #connemara

Fascinating conversation between @Gordonwdarcy @nathanrjohns & Steve Aboud (who denied me a spot in the Irish Academy 😅) @IrishTimesSport @Federugby open.spotify.com/episode/5woNSH…

A recent commission, and my first canine portrait. A true gentleman. #gearoidhayes #gearoidarthurhayes #irishart #dogart #portraiture

Thrilled to get my mitts on another of Walter Frederick Osborne's books. Special thanks to George Mealy of @FonsieMealy @FonsieMealy1 Auctioneers for his assistance in securing it. #bastienlepage #walterosborne #irishart #gearoidarthurhayes #gearoidhayes

@BrianoArt Btw this is a startlingly good copy! 🤩

Happy Birthday to Orps. This is my copy of one of his still life paintings. Circa 2009.
