Barry Castle

Register for Updates Request a Valuation
The daughter of author Maura Laverty, Barry Castle studied art at NCAD enrolling at the age of 15 and being taught by Sean Keating, Maurice MacGonagle and John Kelly, but left after two years. She did not continue to paint until she was taught a luminous technique by her self-taught husband. During her career Castle illustrated numerous books including her mother’s book, The Queen of Aran’s Daughter. Many of the originals for her illustrative work are now housed in the National Library of Ireland. Castle also exhibited regularly from the 1970s in Dublin, Cork and London. www.whytes.ie
