Nathaniel Hone
Nathaniel Hone the Younger was the great-grand-nephew of painter Nathaniel Hone (17181784). Hone studied in Paris where Courbet and Corot were major influences.
"Having studied in Paris, painted for many years in the Forest of Fontainebleau, then visited Italy, Nathaniel Hone returned to Ireland in 1872, settling in north Co. Dublin. He painted much on the West coast of Ireland, and travelled abroad. But the coasts at Malahide and Portmarnock, with their beaches, sand dunes, choppy seas and massive skies, along with the pastures at Raheny, provided inspiration for many of his finest paintings. In many of his seascapes the strand or sea occupies only a third of the composition, the upper two thirds being filled by the sky, with its ever-changing clouds - sometimes signalling the onset of rain, at other times clearing to allow blue sky to appear." [excerpt, Dr Julian Campbell, 2018] "Nathaniel Hone discovered the coast of Co. Clare and the village of Kilkee in about 1890 or slightly earlier. Inspired by the dramatic coastline of dark rocks, cliffs, rock pools and stormy seas, he painted dozens of watercolours, small oil studies, and a series of large elemental canvases - some of his finest paintings, here on the West coast of Ireland." [excerpt, Dr Julian Campbell, 2018] Hones works are held in public and private collections, he also established Malahide Golf Club in 1892. www.whytes.ie
