IRISH ARTS REVIEW

EXHIBITIONS

Grez, such as The Bridge at Grez or

Under the Cherry Tree, are strongly reminiscent of Daubigny's romantic

effects of plein-air, never to be equalled in his later works. But it was with

portraiture, particularly women, whom

he painted again and again, with much love and sensitivity, that Lavery really excelled. His sitters were as varied as the

way he chose to portray them, ranging

from the beautiful flower girl Kathleen

MacDermott, alias Annie Evans, his first

wife, whose delicate beauty he captured in An Irish Girl, to ladies from the

highest society, including even the

Queen and the royal princes in a group

portrait of the royal family. Lavery's favourite model and inspira

tional muse however was his second wife,

Hazel Trudeau, whose striking beauty he immortalized in some of his finest por traits such as Hazel in Black and Gold

(illustrated in colour in Irish Arts Review, Vol.1 No.3 p. 15,) where her full-length figure seen from a three-quarter angle

against a neutral background is strongly reminiscent of Zurbar?n's magnificent series of single women saints.

In 1918, Lavery was knighted. One of the finest portraits painted after this event was that of His Eminence Cardinal

Logue. He also liked to paint interiors which allow us a glimpse into the

intimacy of family life, not unlike

Bonnard, another important source of

inspiration, in examples such as the

Kilkenny Interior (the house of Lavery's

stepdaughter Alice McEnery at Kil

moganny, Co. Kilkenny) where the

predominance of that special glowing red so characteristic of Bonnard is

particularly striking. Rather touchingly, after Hazel's death in 1935, and only a

few years before his own in 1941, John Lavery painted another portrait of his first wife, the way he remembered her as

the beautiful flower girl he met in the street and fell in love with. In the

relatively small space of the gallery, which succeeded to accomodate such a

comprehensive exhibition, at times by

hanging the paintings in three

superimposed rows, this very late

portrait creates a fitting pendant to the

youthfully clumsy composition meaning

fully entitled Her First Disappointment with which the exhibition opens. The whole artistic career and life of a very

outstanding, if sometimes uneven, artist

unravels between these two paintings.
