Born in Englandm Duncan stusied at the Bromley School of Art, the Slade and in Paris. In 1907 she began exhibiting with the RSA, giving an address in Glasgow, and three years later had arrived in Dublin, taking studios firstly in North Great George’s Street, then in Brunswick Street (now Pearse Street). In Dublin she renewed her friendship with Estella Solomons, whom she had known at the Slade; a portrait of Solomons by Duncan is in Trinity College. She remained in Dublin for over a decade, before moving to London and later Cornwall. During the 1920s she showed regularly at the RHA, the RSA and the RA. She also had a show at the Arlington Gallery in London, alongside Estella Solomons and Louise Jacobs. Duncan’s work is in the collections of the Hugh Lane Gallery, Dublin, the Model and Niland Centre in Sligo, and the National Portrai t Gallery in London among others.

Born at Craigavad, Co. Down, Georgina Moutray Kyle studied at Colarossi’s in Paris during the 1880s, returning afterwards to Ireland with a distinctly modern palette and Post-Impressionist style. She became an active committee member of the Belfast Art Society (later called the Ulster Academy of Arts) and was a dominant persona in Belfast exhibitions in the 1920s and ‘30s (see Snoddy, page 328). At a retrospective organised last year by Queen’s University, Belfast, four other examples of Kyle’s Volendam landscapes were included, on loan from the Ulster Museum, the Armagh County Museum and private collections.

McKelvey painted a series of market or fair day scenes in the latter part of his career. During the 1930s he had painted the subject on rare occasions (for an example of such see plate 19, Market Scene circa 1935-36, in S. B. Kennedy, Frank McKelvey, RHA, RUA: A Painter in His Time, Irish Academic Press, Dublin, 1993), but in the last fifteen years of his life exhibited seven market scenes at the RHA. Two of these depicted the fair day in Roundstone, Co. Galway; another was painted in Creeslough, Co. Donegal, and is quite possibly the present work.
