  • James McKenna (1933-2000) GROUP FROM CITIZENS'
    Nov. 24, 2008

    James McKenna (1933-2000) GROUP FROM CITIZENS'

    Est: €6,000 - €8,000

    James McKenna (1933-2000) GROUP FROM CITIZENS' TREE, 1966 stamped and numbered at base bronze (no. 1 from an edition of 5) 42 by 28cm., 16.5 by 11in. Citizens' Tree commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the 1916 Rising. McKenna's memorial consisted of a tree of figurative groups including The Five Lamps and Five Stalwart Hurlers as well as single figures and the present group of adult male and female figures. Whilst the plaster maquette for Citizens' Tree no longer survives and the full-scale memorial was never realised, individual groups were cast in bronze in 1985 and featured in the recent retrospective of McKenna's work at IMMA.
