National Gallery of Ireland
On the walk back from St. Stephen's Green, I stopped by the National Gallery of Ireland. Its collection features, but is not limited to, Irish art from 17th-century onwards. I don't remember seeing any 21st century pieces; I think I'll get my fill when I visit the Irish Museum of Modern Art.
A featured exhibit in the Gallery is the Jack Yeats Museum. Starting as a commercial illustrator, Jack Yeats moved more and more to an Expressionist style in his later years. You can see the contrast in these examples of his earlier and later works.
In this recording, you'll faintly hear two American women discuss and read the description for "An Island Funeral."
