WHYTE'S IMPORTANT IRISH ART 29 NOVEMBER 2021 AT 6PM

76 55 Tony O’Malley HRHA (1913-2003) LA GERIA, LANZAROTE (TRIPTYCH) oil on board signed with initials lower left of each panel 59 by 34.50in. (149.9 by 87.6cm) Frame Dimensions: 67.5 by 46.5in. (171.5 by 118.1cm) Provenance: Kilkenny Colourists, Kilkenny Arts Festival, 1994; Private collection See note for lot 54 In La Geria, Lanzarote (Triptych), each board is individually signed, perhaps an indication that they were conceived as separate works and later brought together as a three-piece suite. However, the harmony of colour and the gentle and fluid dialogue between each element would suggest they were conceived and executed simultaneously. Triptychs by O’Malley are rarely seen at auction and La Geria, Lanzarote offers a wonderful opportunity to acquire such a work. Both paintings represent the very best by the artist from arguably the most collectable period of his career. Adelle Hughes, November 2021 €20,000-€30,000 (£16,950-£25,420 approx.)
